>>As soon as I announce my run for president, I'll post it there. Of course, anytime I hear the national anthem, you are free to take my picture, because unless someone shoots me (and I may be laying there with blood oozing out of my ears) I'll have my hand over my heart, and i'll be looking at the flag, and most likely thinking about how proud I have ALWAYS been of this country. I'll probably also be thinking about how lucky I feel to live here.<vbg>

Oh, come on. When else do we get to sing "ye-et"?
