  1. There was actually a bar with that name...The Florabama Lounge. If I remember right it was not far from the dog track. They had nickel beer nights with a keepsake plastic mug!
  2. I too was teaching a class for some Sailors on Naval Station Norfolk. I'm a Retired Navy Chief myself. We were told about the planes hitting the Towers and I really didn't think much of it as I was thinking small planes probably an accident, then were were told an airliner hit the Pentagon and the Base was being closed. I had to send the students back to their ships (the majority of the students were from USS Seattle)and as I was leaving the Base the security at the gates was like nothing I had seen in my 20 years in the Navy. We have now been attacked twice (don't forget 12-07-41) and need to find some date between those 2 dates for a National Holiday. (I was stationed in P'cola once I loved it except for the fact that it's where I met my ex-wife)
  3. Fez what exactly were you searching for when you came across this gem?
  4. Tigers! Bears! All we need is lions...oh my!
  5. "Home Again," a song about military homecomings, showcases vocals by lead singer Geoff Tate's daughter Miranda. Nice gesture
  6. damj was actually birthed?!?!?! Happy day!
  7. The league as a whole is more powerful than a single owner or even a few owners. This has been tried before and failed. Revenue sharing may shift a little but it won't go away. That's one of the things that make the NFL the great league that it is.
  8. The best part of the whole game was this statement..."False start...everyone but the center". BTW JJ is an !@#$ saying I'm not moving the video screens.
  9. I'm actually heading back to Oahu (teaching on NS Pearl Harbor) on Tues for 12 days. I would 2nd the snorkeling at shark's cove. A bit of trivia on shark's cove is that the locals named it that in an attempt to keep the "howlies" away.
  10. I get yelled at by my wife when I pay a toll and say thank you---Why are you thanking them for taking tour money? She's right.
