Good Grief... This has to be one of the strangest threads I've ever
started. I quoted a line from "A Christmas Story" and we wind up
discussing my citizenship status and wondering what of sort of American I
am. For the record, I suppose I'm not that great a citizen, because I
thought only military personnel were required to salute the flag during
the playing of Taps. During the National Anthem, I always stand up, take
off my hat, place my hand over my heart and face the flag, but I was
completely unaware that Taps had any requirements for civilians. (Though
I certainly have nothing but the utmost respect and admiration for those
who serve.)
It's possible that one day I might learn to think twice before posting
stuff to this list. Or not. It's so much more interesting this way :-).
