Non piu andrai

Cherubino, alla vittoria! Alla gloria militar! Alla gloria militar!

Scores on Cole's medieval history quiz; NU vs CU; Stanford vs Cal

Me: 3 of 5 correct
My dad: 3 of 5 correct

I didn't know anything about King Clovis, and proved to be generally weak in the "Frankish Kings" department.

On the other hand, my dad missed an easy one on Charlemagne. I knew he was the first Holy Roman Emperor (perhaps by convention, only?), although I didn't know he (ie, Chuck) was a Frankish king.

Need to read up on Frankish Kings, I guess.

*****
Nebraska vs Colorado: we watched it at the loft, and the Huskers looked good in the first half before melting down in the second. It's been a long time since I sat down with my dad and watched the Nebraska Cornhuskers win a football game on TV.
*****

Stanford (women's) Volleyball vs Cal, Maples Pavilion: a great game, won by Stanford in the fifth.
