...Today...June 4th...in 1942....the epic Battle of Midway began....it would become one of the most decisive United States victories agains Japan during WW 2.....the Japanese had what was considered to be a practically invincible navy....and the U.S. forces ended up destroying no less than four Japanese air craft carriers and lost only one....outnumbered and outgunned, U.S. forces changed the course of the war in the Pacific...from this point on until the end of the war the Japanese naval fleets were on the defensive....there is a reason they are often referred to as our greatest generation...and believe me when I tell you my hat is off to ALL service men and women past and present. Thank you for stopping by today! Rick
...I picked up the latest Arnold Schwarzenegger film on DVD the other day....The Last Stand.....and honestly I was concerned about whether or not Arnold could still pull it off....I mean let's face it he is no spring chicken!....and happily I can tell you that he definitely still has it!.....If you get a chance to pick it up by all means do so....it is well worth watching....Johnny Knoxville definitely adds to it in a positive way as well....I guess what I liked most about it was simply that Arnold didn't attempt to ignore the fact that he isn't 30-40 yrs old any more.....instead he embraced it...played it up...and made it work well....Man of Steel will be on the big screen within a couple weeks and I most definitely will check that one out as well!! hope to see you out and about soon.........Rick
...I honestly thought last night we would see a much closer game....I mean after all Indiana seemed to be one of those scrappy defense oriented tough to shake teams that fought their way into a 7th game....I guess when all pistons are firing for Miami they are beyond difficult to keep up with....I would like to pick San Antonio for the whole bag of marbles so to speak....but just can't seem to justify it after last night....I will go with Miami and Lebron will pick up his second ring....but hey that's just me and Lord knows if I knew everything I would own islands by now! I do hope you are having a great Tuesday! Rick
....Of course Seether is coming to town on August 31st......but did you know Ratt is coming to town as well??.....no to mention...Clutch!!!!....get all the details on those shows and more at T95.com!...Had a great time at dodge ball during the Riverfest over the weekend....everyone that played had a great time and the crowd was awesome!!...be looking for video of it very soon on T95.com!! thanks for stopping by.....Rick
