Hi thread,

Karen, I too have left off the "for all" of the pledge of Allegiance since I was in high school. I thought I was the only person in the world who did something like this. Amazing.

And YYB, we actually sang songs that were billed as "Negro Spirituals" when I was in grade school. I remember one going: "Gonna jump down, turn around, pick a bale of cotton, gonna jump down turn around, pick a bale of hay."

That sounds mighty spiritual, huh?

It's been a long day, I'm signing off, but I'm glad the discussion continues. The LWP is becoming some kind of intellectual all-night diner; there's something to chew on 24 hours a day. Thank you all.
