"On July 12, 1973 Driesell was credited with saving the lives of at least 10 children from burning buildings. He and two other men were surf fishing around midnight in Bethany Beach, Delaware when Driesell spotted flames shooting from a townhouse complex behind them. Driesell broke down a door and began getting children out. The fire destroyed four townhouses. Judge Samuel Meloy commented. "Let's face it, Driesell was a hero. There were no injuries and it was a miracle because firemen didn't come for at least 30 minutes." For these actions, Driesell was awarded the NCAA Award of Valor."

Here's an excerpt from a Michael Anft blog post about Lefty
http://74.125.113.132/search?q=cache:5G-HeJZ_3AoJ:www.pressboxonline.com/story.cfm%3Fid%3D1636+lefty+drisell+racism&cd=9&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

The down-home, good-old-boy pitches of "Ol' Cornpone," as one Evening Sun columnist called Driesell, went over as well in the living rooms of white suburbia as they did in the kitchens of inner-city rowhouses.

oh man the EVENING SUN

While supposedly JTJr never would let his Hoyas play the Terps, others have said that it was merely a money issue--how to divide up the ticket income and where to play the game.

curmudgeon, Sunday, 21 March 2010 21:08 (fourteen years ago) link

They got farther than Georgetown at least.

curmudgeon, Monday, 22 March 2010 03:10 (fourteen years ago) link

let us not forget my alma mater's tragic loss in the first round to KANSAS.

Glad KANSAS got theirs in the end.

I'm rooting for Purdue Friday night against the Dukies...

Did anybody see Sally Quinn cutting in on my turf a little while back in the Post? She wrote a feature in Style on the singer of Pakistani band Junoon. She apparently met him at the Kuwait Ambassador's gala benefit. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/12/AR2010031200075.html?hpid=talkbox1

some questionable choices by the people. I did not take part in the staff selections

Are long stretches of H St. NE pavement all messed up, blocked off, etc. because of plans to put trolley tracks in, or is this just some other work that needs to be done? Was at the RnR Hotel last night at Gang Gang Dance.

So I do not care about the cherry blossoms, ok.

curmudgeon, Thursday, 1 April 2010 14:03 (fourteen years ago) link

I like the cherry blossoms! I just dislike the tourists much more. I really enjoy just seeing random cherry trees in bloom around the city. Everyone knows the Arboretum is the good local place to go see a bunch w/o the masses of people, right?

I DIED, Thursday, 1 April 2010 14:07 (fourteen years ago) link

Alright, you make good points

curmudgeon, Thursday, 1 April 2010 14:09 (fourteen years ago) link

there aren't enough in my neighborhood (columbia heights) but i like seeing them around adams morgan and dupont and elsewhere.

oh man the tourists. it's like someone flipped a switch and made my commute home 70% stupider

Anybody go to Cherry Blast last year? How wuz?

This is from W. Post Going Out Gurus:

This year, Cherry Blast II - the creation of artist Philippa P.B. Hughes - moves to a storage warehouse in Adams Morgan, but the aesthetic remains the same. Artists will have their works displayed or projected on walls in several rooms. Music comes from the funky Fatback DJ crew, Maureen Andary of local folkies the Sweater Set, DJ Alex Gold of the Fridge and the duo of DJ Chris Nitti and multi-instrumentalist Matt Hemerlein. Throw in a sake bar, a "marshmallow arts play room" and other surprises, and it's sure to be a night to remember
