This is a shot I took of an old live oak tree on the Texas A&M campus called the "Century Tree." True to its name, the oak is a little over 100 years old. The bench under the Century Tree is a popular site for wedding photos. According to Aggie tradition, if you walk under the Century Tree with your date or fiancee', you'll be with that person forever. On the other hand, if a single person walks under the tree alone, they're doomed to be single forever... which, depending on your point of view, might not be such a bad thing.

Beautiful tree.
When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.

It is the same when you are stupid.
