C-isms

Mom (in the AM, before breakfast): "Sweater? It is cold?" C: "No. I want a blanket." C wraps around herself, shuffles around and says: "You have done well young Padawan, you have done well." 9/8/12
C: "A great teacher would remove the word 'impossible' from the classroom dictionaries." [Why?] "Because nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it."
Mom, lost in a park near their house, "I can't find a trail." C: "Lets blaze one!"
C: "Steph-anne Hawkins is not as smart as Einstein because Albert Einstein could do quantum physics and quantum mechanics in his head, while Steph-anne Hawkins, with all due respect, can only do physics. No offense to Steph-anne Hawkins, partially because he is the smartest man alive." Mom (in all seriousness, and remember that she is a regular reader of Scientific American): "What is quantum mechanics?" C: "It is how particles move." 9/26/11

Ensign 101 -- a fantastic article on leadership written by Capt James P. Ransom II, father of my old CO James P. Ransom III. Originally published in Naval Proceedings back in 1993.

I too had the pleasure and honor of serving with James Paul Ransom, Jr. and James Paul Ransom III. JPR Jr was my CO at nuc school Mare Island. JPR III was my Division Officer on LA. Both are excellent men and leaders. Thanks for sharing Ensign 101. P.T. Worthington, MMCM(SS/SW), USN Ret.
