My dad crapped himself a few times. It's a wonder he took back to quail hunting after what he went through during the war. And as much as he likes fishing, he would never go offshore. I have never asked, but I suspect it has to do with the Okinawa campaign.

My uncle survived Guadacanal, Iwo, Tarawa and Oki. During thunderstorms he would just sleep under the bed....Strangely enough he never filed for disability.

I learned my lesson as a wee lad - after my mom told me to wake my dad for breakfast, I raced into their bedroom and leapt on the bed. Bad idea.

SALT LAKE CITY — Walter Fredrick Morrison, the man credited with inventing the Frisbee, has died. He was 90.

Utah House Rep. Kay McIff, an attorney who represented Morrison in a royalties case, says Morrison died at his home in Monroe, Utah, on Tuesday. McIff is from Richfield, Morrison's original hometown.

"That simple little toy has permeated every continent in every country, as many homes have Frisbees as any other device ever invented," McIff said. "How would you get through your youth without learning to throw a Frisbee?"
