    I thought he only came out of hiding on July 4th. A winter sighting is quite rare!

    I teared up every time they showed this guy. Bigly.

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. 

  • I definitely started tearing up around the middle, when he switched over to the original, Russian version.  Hadn't heard that before.  It was a little too on the nose.

    As  I sat there watching, realizing the day had finally come, that we can say "Your Fired" to the outgoing administration, I shed many HAPPY tears. Finally I have hope for some real change that might be in our own countries best interest for a while.

    I am sure that today, millions of Americans will be out there typing "Your Fired!"  into Facebook and other social media outlets, without the tiniest sense of irony.

    I attended Navy boot camp back in 2003. At the very end we do a thing called Battlestations. Essentially a 24 hour event were we do simulated casualty events. At the end of Battlestations they played this song and gave us our Navy ball cap. We were now no longer recruits, but newly minted sailors. 
    Cant help but think back to that morning every time I hear this song

    Always loved this song. Heard it at NASCAR races often over the years. Memorial Day weekend at Charlotte many times. Lee did it some justice today. About the best I have heard since the first time. Yeah, it brings a tear...
