This year, as Americans serve across the globe in important battles
against terror and tyranny, Veterans Day takes on even more meaning. We are blessed with nearly limitless freedoms and liberties in our country. In exchange for all this nation gives to us, it does not demand much in return. Yet throughout our history, millions of men and women have volunteered to give back through military service. Their courage and sacrifice has elevated our nation to the prosperity we enjoy today, and they deserve our gratitude. Take a moment to honor those who have made our country what it is today with their courage, their sacrifice, and their lives. I will be visiting my best friend tomorrow, he's in the Veterans cementary in Houston. And a coasty at that!. Joe |

Some Gave All *
I knew a man, called him Sandy Cane. Few folks even knew his name. But a hero, yes was he. Left a boy, came back a man. Still many just don't understand about the reasons we are free. I can't forget the look in his eyes, or the tears he cried, as he said these words to me. All gave some and some gave all. Some stood through for the red, white and blue, and some had to fall. And if you ever think of me, think of all your liberties, and recall, some gave all. Now, Sandy Cane is no longer here. But his words are oh so clear as they echo throughout our land. and all his friends who gave us all, who stood the ground and took the fall to help their fellow man. Love your country and live with pride and don't forget those who died. America, can't you see All gave some and some gave all. Some stood through for the red, white and blue, and some had to fall. And if you ever think of me, think of all your liberties, and recall, some gave all. authors ~ Billy Ray Cyrus / Sandi Cyrus http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ILLDRINKTOTHAT http://community.webtv.net/tassail/AFATCATSLIFE |
