The Southern Roots of Memorial Day
Very interesting article about the real origin of “Memorial Day” at the Institute for Southern Studies…
Shows South Carolina wasn’t always as demented as it is today….
Year in which former slaves in Charleston, S.C. held a funeral procession to honor Union soldiers who died in a local Confederate prison camp: 1865
Number of people who took part in the May 1 procession, called Decoration Day, held after the freedmen dug individual graves for the soldiers (in photo), who had been buried en masse: nearly 10,000
Number of African-American children who marched past the graves, strewing flowers and softly singing “John Brown’s Body” and “The Star-Spangled Banner”: 2,800

And thanks to all the Veterans.
Especially the ones still serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We hope you come home soon….

I don’t want to offend, only entertain…
And I found this very entertaining!
There’s a longer version on YouTube if you want to search it out…..

Passover: If Moses Had Had the Internet…
As Passover approaches, this seemed very appropriate…
And appropriately cool and entertaining…
Hat tip AmericaBlog where I first saw it:
Cheyenne Jackson & Kate Baldwin: That Old Devil Moon
A little Friday night entertainment….
Seems perfect for the Friday after St Patrick’s Day- and an almost full moon…
Hell, any excuse to see Cheyenne Jackson- and Kate Baldwin- performing this one more time…
From the wonderful revival of “Finian’s Rainbow” we were lucky enough to see on Broadway a couple of years ago…
