Happy 63rd Birthday U.S. Air Force

For some reason, it seems hard for me to believe that a branch of the United States armed services is only 63 years old.  I know that airplanes haven't been around forever and that the predecessor of today's Air Force was previously embedded into older portions of our military, but age 63 seems pretty darn young to me.  In any case, happy birthday, and many thanks to both current and past members of the U.S. Air Force (and all other military services, as well).  I truly appreciate all that you have done and continue to do in order to keep the American freedoms and lifestyle that I often take for granted secure.

Hurricane Igor is heading towards Bermuda today. It's a big day in college football. Today's games include a couple of SEC matchups, Arkansas playing at Georgia and Tennessee hosting Florida, as well as Oklahoma taking on Air Force and Nebraska lining up against Washington. Lindsay Lohan failed a court-ordered drug and alcohol screening test and might be headed back to jail.

On this Day
