    Anyone wanna know the truth about the even colder mike austin/stone cold Walmart signing in Indiana? Read this?
    Question:
    Okay, First of all I have read almost every response about this incident in Greens burg, Indiana, and I have not yet seen one person say the truth about anything. You guys have no clue what happened down there you just listen to what the media says. This Even Colder Mike Austin impersonator has won a Stone Cold Steve Austin look-alike contest on national t.v in 2000, and Stone Cold was the judge himself. Even Colder has been IMPERSONATING Stone Colder Steve Austin going on 10 years. He is very honest, and has never told anyone he was the real Stone Cold Steve Austin. I think if you actually met him in person you could tell it was not him that said he was Stone Cold. If you guys knew the truth, Even Colder confronted the promoter of the wrestling confederation in Greens burg, Indiana, and said he will not be brought in as Stone Cold in any way. When he found out about when he was brought in as Stone Cold he told the promoter he will not finish up his night wresting in his show, and left. So if you want to know the truth, look here, not at any other websites about him. I promise I am telling the 100% truth.

    Answer:
    No.

    Where to move? Austin , TX or Carmel, Indiana?
    Question:
    I want a city, town with good home prices, good schools and lots of things to do.

    Answer:
    Well what are you looking for exactly? If you want snow, and a more laid back lifestyle, move to Indiana. If you want warmer temps with possibily of rains and you're looking for a bigger city with a bigger nightlife then pick Austin. Really would be more helpful if you gave more details. In that case since your details are added I would choose Indiana! Perhaps this will help you in your decision: http://www.ci.carmel.in.us/ http://www.ci.austin.tx .us/

    Who were the parents of C. Austin Eastman/ Easton, he lived in Blmgton, Indiana.?
    Question:
    He was an adult by/ before the 1950s I have no other info on him. No dates, nothing. This man was a banker at First National bank in the 1950's

    Answer:
    If you know any of his sibling's names or what the C. stands for, you could edit your question and probably get your answer. I'm wondering if Austin was a nickname and this could be him? It was the closest I could find, unless he resided somewhere else in 1930. I'll check back. SOCIAL SECURITY DEATH INDEX Claude C Easton Born: 09 Apr 1923 Died: 30 Jun 1996 (Bloomington, Monroe, IN)

    Should I live in Austin or Dallas?
    Question:
    I have a new opportunity to take a job in TX. I now live in Indianapolis, IN and can choose between Austin and Dallas. My wife and I are 36 and have 2 kids in Jr high and 1 in elementary. We live a fairly active lifestyle and enjoy outdoor activities. We spend a fair amount of time biking, hiking, boating, camping, etc. We tend to be pretty social as well, so we'll definately be searching out local night-life activities. Having lived in Indiana my whole life, I would like to settle in a place that has some topographical diversity. We value education, so local school performance will likely drive our decision as well. Thanks!

    Answer:
    Austin definately, much better activities and "topographical diversity". Otherwise both are quite similar.

    I want to go to school out of state, where do I start?
    Question:
    I live in Indiana currently but I want to move to Austin to go to school. What do I have to do in order to not have to pay out of state school tuition/fees?

    Answer:
    Establish residency in TX - that usually means you had to live there for at least a year, pay taxes, have a local drivers license, car registration, voter card, and house/apartment. The other possible option is if you want to complete a major that isn't offered in Indiana - sometimes you can attend an out-of-state college for the same price as an in-state college.

    Fake Steve Austin Fools Walmart, check out these photos?
    Question:
    Click here for photos of the guy: http://wrestlingtruth.com/news/pictures-of-the-fake-steve-a ustin-who-duped-walmart/ "We reported a story yesterday about a fake Steve Austin that was selling photos and autographs outside of a Walmart in Indiana - with the stores permission and encouragement. (I’m sure they were honored to get Steve Austin, although make sure it’s the real one next time!) Apparently he wrestles on the garbage level Indy scene as “Even Colder” Mike Austin. Sharkboy’s one thing but Jeez." The question is would he fool you? I think he's quite convincing.

    Is there anybody from Kentucky or the surronding area living in Texas?
    Question:
    Whereabouts in Texas do you live? How do you like it? Would you like to stay or leave? What are some great things about Texas? Where in Kentucky did you live? How did you like it? Would you like to return or not? Would you rather live in Texas or Kentucky? I live b/t Louisville and Lexington, and am very strongly considering a move to Texas, preferably Austin or San Antonio, for graduate school. Perhaps I could get some expertise from native Kentuckians on their new home and see what they think of it. No offense to Kentuckians, but I've been to Texas before and wondered why I wasn't brought up there (lol). By the way, by surrounding area, I mean the 7 states that border KY: Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri. By the way, born in Madisonville, KY, raised in Lawrenceburg, KY.

    OXYMORON : ) "...LIVING IN TEXAS..." TEXAS :( BLAH YUCK

    Can I transfer to another college if i only completed my freshman year in college?
    Question:
    I'm going to be attending University of Indiana. It was my 2nd school of choice. I'm wondering if it is possible that if i don't like it in Indiana, could I transfer to another institution after only 1 year in Indiana? (that would mean I would be in another school by my sophomore year.) The schools that I would probably want to transfer to says that they need/recommend having 30 credit hours. If it is possible, then will the colleges be looking at first semester grades only or both semesters? The colleges I would probably want to transfer to are UT Austin and USC. Thank you

    Answer:
    Yes, it is possible to transfer schools (of course, this depends on the school, but for the most part) after only one year, and they're going to look at whatever grades you have completed at the time of application, whether it's one semester or two. If you are trying to apply to a different school right now, then all they will have available to them before making their decision is your first semester of grades (and of course your high school information). HOWEVER, it's kind of early to be thinking about transferring unless you REALLY hate Indiana. If, at the end of this year, you decide you want to transfer, the earliest you'll probably be at your new school would be Spring 2008, since most schools required Fall 2007 applications to be turned in by now, so that's something else to consider. You won't be able to start your sophomore year at a new school, unless you've already applied to a school and they accept you, or unless you find a school with a rolling admissions date. Otherwise, it's a bit too late for the fall.

    Question:
    Syracuse, University of Texas at Austin, Penn State, Michigan State, University of Georgia, Indiana University, University of Illinois, University of Maryland, Rutgers, and University of Missouri.

    Answer:
    I can only speak on behalf of Syracuse...it is a great school, especially the Journalism part. I would recommend earning a Master's degree in Journalism as that will get you further in your career than just a Bachelor's.

    Can anyone give me some Real advice for the following FOREIGN UNDERGRAD UNIVERISTY?
    Question:
    Can anyone give me some Real advice for the following FOREIGN UNDERGRAD UNIVERISTY? University of Texas at Austin, Texas, USA Nan yang Technological University, Singapore Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA Purdue University, Indiana, USA

    Answer:
    Depending on your major, the American Universities you have presented are very powerful. Georgia and Purdue are among the best Undergrad School for Engineering in the United States. University of Texas, Austin is very competitive, though possible to be admitted. Do not know much about Singapore, I recommend you to do a bit of research online. Personally, depending on your major (and depending what division...like Engineering: Mechanical, Civil, industrial..etc) each University holds a high position in their field of study. The better their division, the harder it is to get into.

    There is a Junior Brown song called "Hung it Up" on his latest live CD from the Continental Club in Austin
    Question:
    The lyrics start with this line " I used to drink - I used to smoke - I used to be a Chungalinger and it ain't no joke" What is a Chungalinger? - it is a southern Indiana expression, I think not sure about the spelling - it could be "chuggalinger" The song is actually "I Hung it up"

    Answer:
    Well the song is "I hung it up" but I could not find the words to the song so I don't know about the word "Chungalinger" Are you sure about the spelling?
