Tully and I have some pretty amusing IM chats and always talked about posting one just for random shits n giggles. Here’s one from today as we ponder the frailty of human life.
Tully: im glad im not a kennedy
Tully: i dont want a horrible death
Chili: how do you want to die?
Tully: um
Tully: good question
Tully: my sleep
Tully: yeah
Tully: or super aids
Chili: lol
Chili: i dont want to go in my sleep
Chili: maybe like fighting a lion or something, and i die from blood loss just as i use the last of my strength to choke the lion to death
Chili: all this happens on a sinking battleship
Chili: thats on fire
Chili: and being fired at by russians
Tully: lol
Tully: i want the royal tenenbaum epitaph
Chili: that would be great
Chili: i would just love a giant statue of me in my death grip with the lion
Tully: haha
Tully: yes
Chili: to be placed somewhere in downtown clemson
Tully: if im rich when i die i think ill do something similar than that
Tully: to that rather
Chili: and the plaque will read “YEAH, HE DID THAT SHIT”
Tully: haaha
Chili: and everybody would be like, thats such an awesome statue. i dont know why they had to sculpt what’s clearly an 18″ penis bulging out of his pant leg. that’s just overkill.
Tully: haha
Tully: overkill or accurate representation?
Chili: exactly
Tully: strangling lions just happens to get u hard
Tully: wow
Tully: read that last sentence
Chili: it looks like a couple pringles cans stacked on top of each other
Tully: never before or again will those words be said in that order
Chili: LOL
Tully: haha
Chili: derek and the dominos – layla (piano exit) f*cking awesome
Tully: ya
Chili: its worth downloading the Goodfellas OST on OiNK just for that
Tully: ive already got that song
Tully: but ya
Chili: i think i’ll have a hidden speaker in my statue that plays only that song
Chili: everybody just stops by and gets all wistful and shit
Chili: “man, i shoulda written that novel”
Chili: “i shouldve told my father i loved him. now it’s too late.”
Tully: lol
Tully: as you strangle a lion before htem
Chili: its just the song being played, its a sad song man
Chili: “that’s me grabbing the bull by the horns… that really happened.”

If you set foot on Bowman Field on the Campus of Clemson University, echoes of the past abound. This is the field where soldiers marched in preparation for two world wars, where an entire senior class volunteered for World War II en masse. It’s a field of heroes, as marked formally by the Military Heritage Plaza. Stop by on an Autumn evening and listen to the wind blowing through the 100 year-old oaks encircling the hallowed ground. You might hear the march of Clemson cadets, or you might just hear whispers of a new Clemson hero, a new legend in the annals of Clemson history.
The whispers speak of Tully.
Tully was but one man, one man who lived life to the fullest. While former Clemson soldiers battled oppression and communism, Tully battled sobriety and conciousness.
This is a photographic tribute to the many endeavors Tully championed during his 8 year undergraduate career at Clemson. Ingest these pictures. Learn them, know the feats of Tully.
