4th of July
What Happened? I was waiting all week, anticipating a patriotic themed song lesson. Lots of great choices, Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Woody Guthrie, and many others. It would have been a great theme for the week. I realize that we are a very diverse and international group, but I know I would have enjoyed it, and think many members would have too.
I know what you mean, Max. I was so sorry to see Madagascar Independence Day pass last Saturday with not even a mention on TG or even one single lesson for the jejy voatavo, lokango, kabosy, or marovany. Matt is really falling down on the job here lately. :silly:

Sorry, I tried, but I couldn't resist!

Patriotism is not a strong concept in Canada. We are happy to be Canadian and life is good.Lavallee wrote:Lots, of good Canadian artist, K. D.
