  2. The Gettysburg Address : President Abraham Lincoln, November 19, 1863 Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom— and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. * Picture of the Soldier's National Monument at the Gettysburg National Cemetery (Spot where President Lincoln gave his speech)

  4. My daughter (22) and son (17) are huge fans of RUSH! My son's first name is Neil and his middle name is Alexander. We nicknamed him "Geddy."
  5. One of my friends is a manager at a local Best Buy. The store received a shipment last night with next Tuesday's releases. He called me on the phone around 2000 hours and advised he would drop off a copy of the new remix of "Vapor Trails" at my house. I listened to this CD a couple of times before I hit the sack. I woke up this morning and gave it another whirl. Honestly, it is not worth all of the hype. It is better than the original pile of horse dung but this is not really saying a whole lot. Sorry if I rained on anyone's parade.....
