A starting QB with one hand, and they're having their best season in years. As far as I know, we at KSHU covered this story before the big TV guys did. So proud of Stephanie for this story. There are stories everywhere.

Year 30 loading as head coach of the @chsbrwrestling program! Wow, I guess have been doing it for a while. Thank you to @CHSBRAthletics @CHS_BR for entrusting me to help build good men. Grateful!

I bought this 1989 25’ Boston Whaler for peanuts at a police auction in 2001 when the Federal Park Service sold its Lake Mead patrol vessels to make room for new equipment from the post-9/11 Terror War windfall. My kids grew up on Chumbucket, the perfect craft for fishing, skiing, diving, wakeboarding, etc. She is stable and rugged, with a steel strip down the center keel that makes her safe to beach. If you hit a rock, the rock will break. Every autumn, my kids drove her down Long Island Sound and up the Hudson to overwinter in Ossining. #GetOutside #LiveRealLife

RUD (rapid unscheduled disassembly) events are not unusual in the rocket world
As Elon said… Rockets are hard. But giving up was never an option. 🦾

LSU game now moved to 8:06 pm “for the integrity of the game,” Alex Box announcer Bill Franques just said. Also bad weather in the area. What Franques means is they don’t want to start a game and stop, which would scratch both starting pitchers. And both are No. 2 starters.

The Apollo 13 mission launched on April 11th, 1970 – 55 years ago today. Above all else, Apollo 13 showed the greatness that people are capable of when put to a test with the highest stakes. Over the course of several tense days, the Apollo 13 crew (Jim Lovell, Fred Haise and Jack Swigert) and the NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration team on Earth worked as one to save lives and bring the spacecraft home. Apollo 13 will always remain a shining episode in America’s history. #AProudSalute to all of you for your extraordinary efforts during that challenging time.

ON THIS DAY IN CHS ATHLETICS… PRESENTED BY @_CurrencyBank: On this day in 2010, by the time the finals of the Louisiana Classic Wrestling Tournament began, @chsbrwrestling had already secured the team title in the two-day, 52-team event. The Bears dominated with 284 points, comfortably ahead of second-place Rummel (167.5). Zack Louis, Patrick Bourgoyne, and Michael Love each claimed individual championships, contributing to Catholic's impressive victory.

Équand on bataille, on gagne !  The State Senate just voted to include funding for Télé-Louisiane French programming on LPB in the FY25 budget. Boudini + La Veillée will continue for season 3! Un grand merci to all who made this possible. Vive la Louisiane et lâche jamais !
