Here is a little Trivia about John Wayne. Did you know..... That in 1980 he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom,the highest civilian award,by then President Carter
That he was voted the 4th Greatest Movie Star of all time by Prmiere Magazine. That he adressed the Republican National Convention on its opening Day in 1968.

Click here I wanted to have this tribute ready for his 101 Birthday,but circumstances beyond my control prevented it,so I saved this for the 29 th Anniversary of his passing.
John Wayne was not only a patriot and hero on the screen,but also in true live.
I hope you all will enjoy this thread.

Well, not much going on. I did download yesterday's Windows updates yesterday.
Our DTV service did an upgrade this morning.; The MyMedia section isn't working. I'm going to check up on that. DTV is working though. Weather's nice this morning. Temps in the low 70's.
