COB1 - LOL - First in Flight - running to the hills.....well......It's about the Wright Brothers and their little plane flight here in 1903......but that has caused controversy since these "first flighters" were not native North Carolinians - so Ohio doesn't like us using that term. (Yes, I know what it sounds like - first in running away - but the first in freedom slogan was because some native sons were first to die in many of our assorted wars........) But, see, that's not PC today with the PC crowd.

The idea loving freedom enough to die for it is just anthema to them!

LOL!
Yeah, you and I know the "First in Flight" was about the Wright Brothers, but a lot of people don't.
I didn't mean to cast aspersions on the freedom loving North Carolinians who are willing to die for their right to be free.
I know how the liberal rats are making inroads into everything we do now.
It's like a cancer that is spreading it's tentacles throughout the body of our country.
We, as a country, are in denial that we could have such a disease.
Only when we are on our death bed will be admit that we saw the signs long ago.
