  • Re: The Name Game - Chapter 4

    William A. "Pat" Patterson (October 1899 — 1980) was the president of United Airlines from 1934 until 1966.

    Patterson was born on a sugar plantation on Oahu, Hawaii. When Patterson was 13, his widowed mother moved to San Francisco, California, while he remained at Honolulu Military Academy. Not liking the academy, he decided to leave. He persuaded a captain to allow him to work on his ship in exchange for passage to San Francisco.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_A._Patterson

His name is spelled Isiah but pronounced the same as the more common Isaiah /aɪˈzeʌ/. He was also referred to by the nicknames Zeke, Cuts (for the numerous cuts over his eyelids), The Baby-faced Assassin, The Smiling Assassin, and Tuss.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isiah_Thomas

                It was the valiant defense of Fort McHenry by American forces during the British attack on September 13, 1814 that inspired 35-year old, poet-lawyer Francis Scott Key to write the poem which was to become our national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner."

                  Thank you very much and..........(she says with great modesty) I didn't use Google or any other search engine English history was one of my favorite subjects in high school and since my ancestors were involved in so much of it, I'm pretty good with the trivia stuff. But - I can definitely get stumped!

                              We beat BYU, 70-67. That shot was nominated by ESPN for an "ESPY."

                              Amazingly, Trevor Ruffin also hit a buzzer-beating trey the year before at the Blaisdell to beat ......... who else, BYU (69-66). In both instances, BYU had the ball for the last shot with the score tied, but turned it over. The menehunes were working overtime both nights.
