It's also cool to hear 10,000 people 'singing' along to "Devil Went Down to Georgia" simultaneously. I wonder how many people will remember the 'Achy Breaky' dance? :lol:

The Achy Breaky dance was pretty basic. Even this big old lug could do it pretty well.

...Lets stay on topic and be respectful to all members; from the old members to the average joes.

Do you mean members who have been here a long time or members who are old?

Terpy, who in his heart knows the answer is.....yes.

My mother has told me that I am not allowed to have any more birthdays.

You might want to be careful around her....

Terpy, who notes the cemeteries are full of people who no longer have any more birthdays! :)

Yes, but they rise every Halloween - Just Like the Great Pumpkin!

So, has Lee Greenwood stood up next to America yet to defend it still today or is he still just singing about it?

Mr. Greenwood has always stood up next to her. He is a big supporter of veterans like the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Veterans Administration Hospitals, and the Women's Auxiliary units. Oh and he still sings proudly about it!!!!

I bet Rex is big Bill Cuningham fan, aren't you?

Bill has been a friend of the family for years. He lived down the street from my dad and stepmom for years. He actually is as much of a blowhard in general as he is on his show. The nicest thing I can say about him is that his wife (Penny) is an absolute sweetheart! <G>

Thats what I hear about him, not really surprised.

But dont you think Rex probably really enjoys the show? I mean hes a great American and Rex seems to have an affinity for everything American. ;)

I remember Bill before he started using the "You're a Great American Phrase." I'm not certain where he picked it up but it was right before I moved to Atlanta. I remember he was over at one of the neighborhood houses dropping off the NFL Picks for the week and he was telling everyone "You're A Great American." Everyone that was sitting around was like "What?????"

I am a huge fan of all things American. I am not a huge fan of politicizing patriotism and using it to line your wallet. That's Lee Greewood.

Ohhhhh, I actually kinda get what rex is saying.

I too would agree with commercialization of patriotisim.

It's like the businesses that don't just fly one flag .... they fly 101 flags. It's absolutely rediculous.

Much like commercialization of Christmas, I think that you lose track of what the really important thing is.

So I take it you dont fly an american flag seeing as the manufacturer is making a profit by selling the flag?

Nope. I don't have room for idol worship in my life. I'll keep my patriotism in my heart, where it belongs.
