"This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave." ~Elmer Davis
(Since today is 9/11, my prayers, thoughts, and best wishes go to the families of the men and women in the military. Thank you for the sacrifices that are made to protect the freedom of an American like me.)
