An evening pause: Victory Boyd was supposed to perform the national anthem at the opening game of the NFL’s 2021 season. They canceled her because she has refused to get vaccinated for religious reasons. She responded with this performance made available to all. The NFL should burn in hell.
Her passion in singing the last two lines of the anthem are important. The words, “The land of the free, the home of the brave,” are meant to remind us that you can’t have the former without the latter. Right now, every time I see someone mindlessly wearing a mask I wonder if the latter still exists.
Sing it! Believe it! Make ’22 the year that freedom and courage return to America.

An evening pause: Unlike yesterday’s song, this song should be the anthem for today’s generation, especially the men. The chorus:
How to know when itโs love
How to stay when itโs tough
How to know youโre messing up a good thing
And how to fix it fore itโs too late
And yea I know a boy
Who gave up and got it wrong
If you really love a woman you donโt let her go
Yeah I know few things a man oughta know

An evening pause: This could be the anthem of anyone younger than 20 after their experience during the past two years. Masks and fear-mongering and lies, lies, LIES. It breaks my heart to know that these lies have robbed a whole generation of hope and faith in the greatness that is possible in all humans. And without hope or faith in doing the impossible, not even the possible will be easy.
Note too that Hedy Lamarr proved in her life that the impossible was possible.
