"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." -George Bernard Shaw
While my reasons for my patriotism are much deeper, this certainly is a part of it! Daniel and I believe that our bonny Stars and Stripes make up the most glorious flag of any country! And our fife and drums inspire me with a wonderful swelling of pride for my country that makes me want to sign up for the colonial army! ;) So far nothing can rival that for rousing my patriotism! But below is something that convinces me I have Scotch blood! (even if that is unproved! ;) This makes me want to get a sword and wear a plaid and go tramping through the heather speaking with a thick brogue! What do you think of it? -Rachel
p.s. I love this video, but some of the others done by this group aren't so great!

ReplyDeleteHEY!!!!!!!! Yeah I know what you mean about Patriotism! Hey the Corries are a good group, mostly. Most of the songs I have heard by them are good! Have you heard the Bricklayer Song? Really funny!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am almost convinced I have Irish blood, even that it cannot be proved ;)
I like some of their songs as well. "The Bricklayer Song" is really funny =]
ReplyDeleteOne day Rach, you and I will tramp among the heather! lol! Maybe only in our dreams, but hey, you never know.
ReplyDeleteHey, I forgot what that song sounded like. I LOVE it!! Hey, are you demeaning the Corries. I could tell you a lot of their songs that I like. "The Haughs O' Cromdale" is my favorite. I love the guitar in that song. "Leezie Lindsay" I also like, and "The Skye Boat Song", "Loch Lomond","The Bricklayer", "Bonnie Dundee", "Sunday Driver", "The Wedding of Lachie McGraw", "Come By the Hills", "Come and Join Us". That's all that I can think of for now. Hee hee . . . I have listened to a few of their songs . .. just a few, mind you.
