America's Old Glory...May She Ever Fly Over Our Beloved Nation...
You're a grand old flag,You're a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You're the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev'ry heart beats true
'neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.
~ George M. Cohan

And in tribute to a true American

*sigh* It has been so sad hearing of Tim's death. Meet the Press was great this morning, though, with everyone remembering his love of sports, his humor...all the great things about him.
