Anniversary dates

I am such a slacker. I failed to mention Brother Schottler in the "Batt 3 update" post. Jeff celebrated his 10th year on the job back in June. Pat Richardson just had an anniversary date on the 21st of October, giving him 8 years now. Congrats to both.

On a side note, I promised Batt 2's Lt Andrews that I would put him on this blog for a recent accomplishment of his, so here it is. While working an over-time shift on our batt, Lt. Andrews took part in one of our daily PE routines. (Actually, it's our only routine.) We take turns shooting free throws to see how many in a row we can make. Normally we can make it to 4 or 5. 8 to 9 on a good day. Yours truly (me) got lucky once and made 12 in a row (the first shot wasn't lucky, but the last 11 were). That ended up being the mark to beat for a couple of weeks. That is until MR. BASKETBALL himself showed up. He predicted that he would beat that mark by lunch-time. not only did he beat it, but he crushed it twice, and tied it once. He dropped in runs of 21 and 28 without any problems. To make this more impressive, he did this after working a building fire 5 hours earlier, and getting 4 hours of sleep prior to that. Nice job Lt. Andrews.
