The tribute continued with a nostalgic recollection of his mother's morning routine, painting a vivid picture of a hardworking woman who took pride in her appearance and her work.

Really! So being "famous" is the epitome of human existence. His music is nothing but turgid American patriotic crud. I would get more pleasure listening to wind! "Born In The USA" - The United States of ARROGANCE where everything's big in Texas and the cow pussies wear ten gallon hats on their half pint heads!

"In God We Trust". Which god is it today? Smith and Wesson or uranium 235? The land of 330 million morons of which Goose Stringbean is all but one.
