More on Memorial Day 2004

| 3 Comments | 2 TrackBacks

I was going to do a compilation for tomorrow, but I doubt I could improve on Laughingwolf's Memorial Day roundup, including his links to appropriate cartoons. Great job.

He does miss our How to Support the Troops compilation - not to mention Blackfive's highly recommended "Bonds that Shall Never be Broken" category, with letters from soldies covering WW2 to Iraq and beyond. Along similar lines, read the fantastic Civil War letter from Maj. Sullivan Ballou of the 2nd Rhode Island Volunteers to his wife Sarah. It rests near the end of Bill Whitle's latest essay: Strength (part 1).

No, I'm not an American. I love my country of Canada. But I also love America - and I respect and honour those who died because some part of them loved it too.

Actually, I thought I did have a link in to Blackfive's "Bonds" but seems I slipped up there. Yours was going to go into a post later in the week. :) So much good stuff, so little time. Thanks!

You're a good Canadian. One of the few. Read This Bill Clinton Book Spoof.
I laughed out loud. All important character from his presidency are in it. Clinton destroyed our country. A good read.

And you're exactly the kind of Canadian we Americans adore!

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:

*This* puts text in bold.

_This_ puts text in italics.

bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.

To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
