Could we have kippers for breakfast,

I'd rather listen to this Al Green on the House floor.

Yi Sun-sin (or Yi Sun-shin) should be up on that list. Korean admiral and military general

in 1973 Bobby Riggs defeated world No. 1 Margaret Court who was 31 in the "Mother's Day Massacre," a precursor to the famous Billie Jean King match, winning decisively 6-2, 6-1

I'd say there is a good chance he threw the BJK match.

If Christ is calling you to the Catholic Chuch. Follow his call. Pray on it and if God gives you an answer to follow do so. Your relationship to Christ is more important than GF.
You pay a premium to live in this crap state. Insurance is outrageous. Schools are crap. Roads are horrible. You have to deal with a Hurricane every other year. In south LA if you don't like swamp there is no interesting terrain. I've wanted to leave for the last 10 years years but are helping take care elderly MIL and Mother. Now we are stuck here until the inevitable happens. We are around 4 years away from retirement and I've made it clear. We have lived in this state long enough and as soon as we can we are gone.

Still have my Vikings Raiders Superbowl one in my mom's attic. I also ended up buying the Saints from a flyer they had with my grass cutting money. I think I had them set up as the 79 roster. That sounds about the time I got it.

I always put them in a column somewhere towards the bottom of the board, and hope they don't sink it.

used to go swimming at Repulse Bay, Hong Kong. I always wondered where they got the name for it, maybe it was named for the ship?


Here are some of the key HMS ships named Repulse. It may have been named after one of them.

HMS Repulse (1916): A Renown-class battlecruiser, famous for being sunk by Japanese air attacks in December 1941 with HMS Prince of Wales, marking a significant moment in naval history.

HMS Repulse (1892): A Royal Sovereign-class battleship that served in the Channel Fleet and was sold for scrap in 1911.

HMS Repulse (1868): An ironclad battleship, the last British wooden-hulled battleship, sold in 1889.

HMS Repulse (1803): A 74-gun third-rate ship of the line, broken up in 1820.

Repulse (1596): An early English galleon, also known as Due Repulse, recorded until 1645.

We had one at 40. Ain't going to lie. When they are in late teens. You aren't as full of energy as you were when they are little. But you will be fine.

Be prepared to be oldest mom and dad in classrooms visiting your kids. You won't relate to any of the other moms and dad's. Lol

Contrary to the song, Wenceslas was a terrible king.


If your talking about Wenceslaus the Idle. The song is not talking about King Wenceslaus IV. It's about his ancestor Saint Wenceslaus I (c. 907-929) also known as Václav the Good.

Done. Praying for a speedy recovery.
He was past it the last few years before Ferrari. Just expect Fernando Alonso type things from now on from him.
