A role model for me is my French grandfather who was as strident an American patriot as you could find. He died when I was only an infant, so I know him only through his letters.

He was also a great supporter of France in her time of need, and served as a volunteer with the Canadian forces in France (after he had become an American citizen) from 1914-1918.

I think he would be very pleased with Mr. Sarcozy’s vector.

Oh say can you see, by the dawn’s early light, what so proudly we hailed…

Well I reckon y’all catch my drift. One of the things about which I yell at the radio when Neal Boortz is talking is his contempt for the National Anthem. I’ll be 60 soon, I’ve smoked too much, and still drink too much.

Yet, If we start the song on a boy pitch instead of a girl pitch, I can manage to sing the thing with pretty good pitch, but not perfect pitch. (I seem to be only somewhat autistic.)
