November 15, 2024

Well, THIS Facebook image brought back memories!

I was watching college football last weekend and one of the quarterbacks was a “Sixth-Year Senior”.  Apparently redshirting gives you an extra year and COVID an additional one.  I mention this only because my friend Jeff Dalrymple, back in the ‘60s at San Diego State, was the only sixth-year Senior I had ever heard of.  But he just kept changing his major.

My word of the week is feckless.  I’ve seen it before but didn’t know what it meant and couldn’t really tell by the context, other than it wasn’t good.  Turns out it means irresponsible.  I’m still not gonna add it to my vocabulary.

I'm guessing this view of downtown San Diego dates to around 1947.  Click HERE for a larger view.

And HERE to take a look at the Pacer from November 12, 1964, from 60 years (also, ouch) years ago.
