I watched that guy every week and loved him. It was a sad day when he passed.
I got the blues as my companion.

Red Skelton was a patriotic man and is to be admired.  He was a core of decency amidst a rising tide of irreverant, foolish, crass and selfish entertainers.   

His example is that of a rock...highlighting and outlighting the sea of foolishness all the while withstanding it's incessant waves.  I feel that we, too, are those people in the midst of a faultering nation.

Isn't it amazing how God can make the most uncommon people, the greatest the world has known.

Some time during the late 1960s, my grandmother cut Red's pledge out of a magazine and had it mounted on a plaque.  She gave it to me when I was about 4 or 5.  It hangs over my desk to this day.
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington
