Valour-IT Challenge: It’s A Wrap
Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright, The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light, And somewhere men are laughing, and little children shout; But there is no joy in Mudville — mighty Casey has struck out. Well – comes the time to settle one’s just debts and that’s…

Times are hard these days, and for those living on fixed incomes, many of them being our disabled veterans, they are indeed perilous. Over at Lex’s place comes a request from one such who is seeking advice. Stop by, ponder and offer your wisdom, your experience — your assistance. Thank you. – SJS
Bring it on!
GM to produce the Camaro as a 2009 model. Full story here. Seems like the 60’s again — an embattled President embroiled in an insurgent war, a poltical party (Democrats) bent on self destruction over anti-war issues, hemlines up, etc. And here, 40 (??!!) years later, the return of the muscle car wars looms on…

Canoe U. wins in South Bend, wow!
The greatest Navy win in my lifetime! Congratulations, Navy! 🙂
Ah, that game pretty much ruined my whole weekend, it did. But if Canoe U was ever gonna beat the Irish, this was the year. ND has never fielded a football team worse than this year’s edition. Ever. All y’all can celebrate, and it’s a good thing (for you) the 43-year losing streak is over. I’m sure ol Roger S. is celebrating!
Maybe because I don’t see a level playing field ever returning for the academies the way it was through the early 60s, when I see one beat a team like ND who clearly outranks them in weight/talent on the field, it does my heart good. Doubly so when I see a IAA team do so (like App State v Michigan or Citadel v Arkansas). ND had all the advantages save one yesterday – they didn’t have heart. Navy wanted the win and played over their heads to take the prize.
