As a Veteran of the Armed Forces I too would like to salute all who have served before me, with me and those who serve now and in the future.......and a very special salute to those who have fallen in battle.

I never was a big fan of Billy Ray Cyrus but this song always plays here at my house on this special day ever since I first heard it...........

Billy Ray Cyrus

Some Gave All

Written by - Billy Ray Cyrus & Cindy Cyrus

I knew a man called him 'Sam the Cane'

Few folks even knew his name

But a hero yes was he

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

Chorus:

All gave some, 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 'Sam the Cane' is no longer here

But his words are oh so clear

As they echo throughout our land

For all his friends who gave us all

Who stood the ground and took the fall

To help their fellow man

Love your country, live with pride

And don't forget those who died

America can't you see?

Chorus:

All gave some, 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.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
