I gather it's become a regular thing to post a pun or funny saying on the Community Center marquee in Indian Hills, Colorado.  Click HERE to see some more.



Laurel Brassey Iversen '72, and two other sports figures, are the latest inductees into the Breitbard Hall of Fame.  They will be honored at the 75th annual Salute to the Champions, which will be held next year at a date to be determined.  Click HERE to read the article in the San Diego Union-Tribune.





Turns out someone made a 3-minute video of the demolition of Crawford's auditorium last September.  It also shows what the finished product will look like.  Pretty cool for future Colts.  Kinda depressing for old Colts.   Click HERE to take a gander.



Life imitates art.  On November 20th I opined that the kicker on the cover of the program for the Jeff Greenleaf Benefit Football Game was "very attractive" (translation: "looked female")  This past Saturday Sarah Fuller became the first female to score in a Power 5 football game.  The Vanderbilt kicker made two extra points in the game against Tennessee.  Sadly, the Commodores lost 42-17.



Sandie Robbins Knox '61 shares photos from the 1958 Fad and Fun Day at Horace Mann.  Click HERE to take a look.



This seems an appropriate time to listen to some tunes recorded by Owen Western from the December 1962 Winter Holiday Concert album.  I see the names Alan R. Frank and Richard W. Robinette on the cover.  Dick Robinette is still in town.  Many have asked about the whereabouts of Alan Frank, but no answers have been forthcoming.  Click HERE to view your song selections.



Hard to believe it's was 25 years ago that I lugged my camera and tripod over to Chollas Park to take pictures of them demolishing the towers.  Click HERE to see the photos.
