Thoughts on the win over Penn State, #Badgers fans?

[Jesse Temple @jessetemple]

Good play call with Colton Joseph faking run and then throwing to an open Darrion Dupree down the right sideline, but Dupree drops it. Badgers trail by 10 late in the third quarter, and there can't be many possessions left.

Was struggling to back a 26-foot U-Haul into my new, extremely tight driveway on a busy one-way street. Cars were starting to honk, I was sweating through my shirt, and my depth perception was completely gone.
My next-door neighbor, an older guy who looks about 85, slowly walked out to the curb holding a mug of tea. He stepped right into the middle of the street, held his palm up to stop traffic with zero fear, and started giving me these incredibly precise, aggressive aircraft-carrier marshaller hand signals. Got me in within thirty seconds without scratching a single hedge. When I stepped out to thank him, he took a sip of his tea, looked at my parking job, said, "Guided Phantoms onto the deck in the Gulf of Tonkin. You're worse than all of them," handed me a warm slice of banana bread wrapped in foil, and walked back inside.

@bill_hamblet @NavalInstitute Yours was very good @bill_hamblet , I had missed it when you first published it.

[U.S. Marines @USMC]

25 years after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the Marine Corps joins the Nation in solemn remembrance.

We honor the innocent lives lost, the extraordinary courage of the first responders, and the unity that defined America in its darkest hour. The attacks shaped an entire generation of Marines who answered the call with courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment in the years that followed.

We will never forget.

Lifting weights is hard.

Losing strength, function, and independence while feeling paranoid about falling as you get older is hard.

Choose your hard.

He flew through Midway and Guadalcanal, became the Marine Corps' first recognised ace, and was briefly the fastest man alive.

He survived three wars and came home from all of them.

He was killed at 82, in his own living room, stepping in front of his wife.
