Thought for the Day "If reality wants to get in touch with me, it knows where I am." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Handy Latin Phrases
when describing our troops . . . in Latin:
suaviter in modo, fortiter in re
"gently in manner, strongly in deed"

On this Day in History 1944 General Dwight D. Eisenhower,
future President of the United States,
received his fifth star
Happy Bill of Rights Day!

You are quite right, Diva Betsy Ross!

The idea for "Baba O'Reilly" was actually a Scottish Reel.

Great lead picking, bass, fiddle, drum and guitar work, though!

A fine example of what "The Seldom Scene" would call "Acid Grass".
