My nephews that grew up in Anchorage learned Russian in high school. The youngest, and his then gf, both taught 'English as a second language' classes at a Russian school for Russian executives during the day. They were mostly oil & gas executives. At night they taught the executives families English for extra money. He posted lots of pictures of them hanging out with Russian friends on his FB page. They were saving the money from the private lessons. It was pretty lucrative. They had just signed on for another couple of years, right before they to leave Russia when they invaded Ukraine.

The older brother also spoke Japanese too. He's in the Navy. He started out as a communications technician. He was helping run the communications room in one of the palaces in Iraq in 2003.

He eventually learned some of the Arabic they spoke in Iraq. After he went into the SWCC program and became a Chief, he helped train some of the Iraqi troops we put in power. When Israel got new stealth boats, he went over to train some of their special forces. He's helped train and trained with guys from all over. Some German sailors died during some Arctic training he went through. He told me about river raids some of the Ukrainian guys he helped train made on Russian munition depots.

The interaction between the brothers is so great, especially when they are alone. You don't even see it at the end of this scene, but it's exactly what you'd say to your brother, or a very close friend is he said "a-hole drink Mr. Pibb".

Not me. I'm retired. Except for church or a meeting at the bank or an attorney's office, I don't wear long pants until it gets in the lower 40's. Shorts, short socks and either running shoes or hiking shoes.
I'm 67 but have the legs of a fit 30 year-old! :nana:

I laughed! :lol:


I'm still laughing.
They better start looking for someone to replace him. He seems kind of dumb to say what he said. No telling what he might say in the future. :nana:

I like some of the Gene Keady Purdue teams. He was fun to watch. I always thought he had the right personality to coach football successfully. Early in his tenure, they were underdogs to some of the other Big 10 teams more often than not. Keady was tough on his players, especially his guards, but he developed some good ones. I think he got more out of some of his players than some other coaches might have. Some didn't do as well as expected when they got to the NBA. I think some of those guys just played harder than the guy they were facing at Purdue. Playing harder wasn't going to overcome the talen on an NBA team.

SMU used to host a Cotton Bowl Basketball tournament at Reunion Arena the last week in December. In1986 they had No. 1 North Carolina, No. 2 Purdue, themselves and Towson State in it. SMU played Towson and won, and UNC and Purdue played each other the 1st night. SMU and UNC won those games and met in the championship game the 2nd night. UNC was the champion.

The UNC vs. Purdue game ended with score of 94-81.
The next night UNC beat SMU 88-86.

I got quotes from all of the coaches the first night. Keady joked with the media guys he knew before the game, and was nice after losing to UNC. He reminded me of a preacher I knew as a kid. That preacher could bring down thunder during one of his sermons, but was calm and friendly when you talked with him. That's kind of how I saw Keady.

Check out the players on each team's roster.



Dean Smith was maybe the coolest old guy I'd met at that point, but that was before I met Pat Riley.

How did the Big 10 get better in every sport than the SEC?

Kentucky hires & fires basketball coaches kind of like LSU hires & fires football coaches since 2000.
