Hey Scribe – how was your week?
Weekend Notes
Quick note to pass along that VAJoe.com has an interview of Your Humble Scribe up at his site. Try not to laugh too hard… The rains (and oppressive humidity) have relented so with blue skies in the offing, believe it’s time to hit the roads for the mountains of WVa with the family – in…
Petition to Name a Ship After LT John W. Finn, USN
Many of us do not know how we will react when suddenly called upon to perform the extraordinary in desperate and lethal conditions. We train and plan, but until the bullet flies or the fire burns close at hand, all we can do is speculate. On the morning of December 7th, 1941 there was no…

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.
