I hope I'm not leaving anyone out because I'm sure enjoying all the wonderful 4th of July graphics posted today by Tonk's "harem"!!!

Did anyone just see Brit Hume interview Joe Bonsall of The Oak Ridge Boys? One of the most touching interviews I've seen in a long time!

Joe's written a book about his parents:
G. I. Joe & Lillie: Remembering a Life of Love and Loyalty

Barbara Bush wrote the book introduction. His parents married 5 days after they met! -- at a VA hospital: His father'd been injured at Normandy; his mother was a Cpl., helping oversee transport of injured soldiers from Europe to treatment centers in the US. (I apologize if I'm not historically accurate in any of my descriptions here; I'm going from memory.) ... The interview was truly a wonderful tribute to our armed forces on this proud day; Joe's book sounds like it's a wonderful tribute to his parents.
