    It could be that I just continue to be surprised about how many people say they love their country but don't know the first basic things about it

    Then again, it could just be that I have a flag fetish

    I love my wife....can't tell you what she was wearing today or how here hair was styled...

    She ALWAYS knows and notices these "details"...

    Attention to trivial details... does not equate love....Pharisee.

    I don't know if the "details" comment was directed at me, or not, so just in case I'll cover my bases:

    Do you know your partners hair colour? Their eye colour? Their...

    Do you know your partners hair colour?


    She's a stylist...it can change daily...and often does. And she gets "pissed" when I don't notice...like it's an effort on my part. She will just say out of the blue..."So what do you think?" and I get that deer in the headlight look... I truly don't know and am askeeered! lol!

    And no LT it wasn't directed at you... I knew the answer to your question. Actually I ask many "Americans" the same thing...just to get them to think.

    I actually am more amazed at the rampant and blind stupidity associated with the psychotic mob mentality exhibited toward NFL games. The loyalty and zealousness is truly amazing and many times far exceeds anything the Dubs have ever done.

    You had my sympathy at that point

    But, hey, what have you got against football?!!!!

    I used to love it (the American kind)...

    then I joined this cult and they basically beat it out of me....some nonsense about violating "christian neutrality" or some gibberish.

    So for twenty years I pretty much did without... too busy "pioneerin" and all.

    Now I live in Colorado where it is a State mandate to be a Bronco's fan...which I'm not.

    I feel like the only alcoholic in a Mormon town in the center of Utah...catch my drift.

    The cult I was in was nowhere near as fanatical as the Bronco Cult is...

    Plus my kids all play "your" kind of football...Soccer... I kinda like it.

    I'm actually contemplating joining a local indoor league for men 35 and older...
