Funny (not at all really) how in recent history Americans were so patriotic for such a short time and now our causes and passion have been lost. I have cookbooks of my grandmother's from WWII, they bought and thought nothing but American, it's sad.

I miss hearing the national anthem that was always played at noon time on the local radio stations during the days/months after 9/11
