For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday...
Thank the Veterans who served in
The United States Armed Forces.

Looking forward to tomorrow's freedom?
Support The United States Armed Forces Today!

Welcome Troops, Veterans, Military Families, Allies and FRiends!
No syrup on the pool table please.

Born on this Day 1861 William J. Mayo (right), surgeon and
co-founder of the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Minnesota

Happy Birthday 1948 Fred Grandy, actor and former 4-term U.S. Congressman;
best known as "Gopher" on the television hit "The Love Boat;"
holds a B.A. in English from Harvard University and is fluent in French and Arabic; Grandy is currently a radio talk show host

Word of the Day
RAIN RAIN RAIN
Let it rain in central Virginia!

On this Day in History 1613 Shakespeare's storied Globe Theatre in London burned down; a reconstruction of the storied theater opened in 1997

On this Day in History 1767 The British passed the Townshend Revenue Act levying taxes on the American colonies; Americans protested the Townshend duties, as they had the earlier Stamp Act, with constitutional petitions, boycotts, and violence to even include "tar and feathering" (MoJo, can we try this on Tomkow the next time he misbehaves?)

On this Day in History 1967 screen siren Jayne Mansfield died in a car crash at age 34; Mansfield's exploits were arguably more memorable than any of her film credits

Don't forget the syrup! Pancakes Wednesday with the Troops --
definitely!

If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,



Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.



And I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,



And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,



Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.


From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,


Across the plains of Texas



from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.,



There's pride in every American heart
and it's time we stand and say:



That I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,



'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
