America the Beatiful

[Feejer/Weejer man]

The most beautiful place in the world. Wouldn't it be great to be able to ride our FJR's and see all of this wonderful scenery.

God Bless John Wayne. The radio station I listen to plays that a few times a week. It's great.

Gee, I wonder why he refused to take a physical and fight in WWII? :angry:

See, now you just had to go and ruin it! DAMN YOU!

A nice thread started about how we are fortunate enough to live in the greatest country in the world, and you just had to piss in the stew. ****, now I'm going to go kick the dog or something.

You piss me off!

Now, perhaps Trigger won't hunt you down and kick your ***.

John Wayne history excerpts:

...Wayne was exempted from service due to his age (34 at the time of Pearl Harbor) and family status, classified as 3-A (family deferment)... ...Wayne's secretary recalled making inquiries of military officials on behalf of his interest in enlisting...

...He repeatedly wrote to John Ford, asking to be placed in Ford's military unit...

...Republic Studios was emphatically resistant to losing Wayne, especially after the loss of Gene Autry to the army. Correspondence between Wayne and Herbert J. Yates (the head of Republic) indicates that Yates threatened Wayne with a lawsuit if he walked away from his contract...

That was great. It gave me goose bumps.

Thanks! :thumbsup:

Thanks Scab. I wanted to look into myself, but didn't have the time this morning before I had to hit the road.

I probably travel (for pleasure) a bit less than the average guy. Nevertheless, I've been abroad, and I've come to the belief that if every vacation for the rest of my life took place within US Borders, I would be greatly satisfied, but would still yearn for more.

Thanks for a great video. Hope I get to visit all those places someday.
