Not really. But this seems like a good time to introduce WWS readers to a new blog put together by our own Steve Hayes, staff writer at THE WEEKLY STANDARD, author of Cheney: The Untold Story of America's Most Powerful and Controversial Vice President, and a cheesehead wearing, Pabst drinking, Lambeau loving Packers Geek. Over at packergeeks, Hayes links this story about three Marines who will soon ship out to Iraq:
Like most Packers fans, Matthew Bannach, Jayson Wissmueller and Joe Stewart wanted Brett Favre's autograph. Not content to wait outside Lambeau Field with pen and paper, the three Marine lance corporals simply Googled the Green Bay quarterback's signature, printed it and took the John Hancock to a tattoo artist in San Diego while they were on leave. Actually, Wissmueller organized it and talked Bannach and Stewart into getting the $50 tattoos in October. "Two beers later, it was a great idea," said Bannach, 21, of Franklin.
And so ends the search for a title for my memoir. Packers fans will want to bookmark it.
