My friend Preston’s youngest daughter goes to Marist. She’s a pole vaulter. This summer she’s traveling around the country attending track meets. Her goal is to vault for an Ivy League school, perhaps Yale or Dartmouth.

We had a nice dinner at the Cho’s house. Korean BBQ. Preston even had Korean beer. A wonderful time. Didn’t get home until 10:30.

What was your opinion of the parade celebrating the Army’s 250th birthday? Isn’t it the job of the Army to travel out of town, to stay in not great lodging, to wake up early, and then to spend hours waiting to leap into action? Apparently some people don’t understand that. Marching in the parade was probably a nice break from day after day of hard training. It’s nice to be recognized sometimes, instead of vilified.

Were you watching when Caitlin got mauled? Seems to be a daily occurrence. Lebron was given grief when he praised Caitlin for a recent big game, but did not praise Angel for her triple double.

Denison: how Iran is currently threatening American citizens.

Denison: the latest on the Iranian conflict.

Denison on why Iran is the world’s most dangerous regime: Iran’s Shiite theocrats believe they are leading a revolution to export radicalized Islam in preparation for the coming of the Mahdi. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard claims the “Jewish state will be destroyed before Mahdi’s arrival.” Some see Russia’s war against Ukraine as a prelude to the “reappearance of the Mahdi. Sharia law permits lying to non-Muslims to advance Islam. Israel views Iran’s nuclear ambitions as a threat to their survival, and negotiations as a ploy to buy time until Iran can create weapons with which to destroy the Jewish state.
