Subject:'Real American'
Time:7:13 am.
Mood:sarcastic.
Music:Derringer - Real American.
When it comes crashing down, and it hurts inside
Ya' gotta take a stand, it don't help to hide

If you hurt my friends, can you hurt my pride
I gotta be a man, I can't let it slide
I am a real American
Fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
Fight for what's right - Fight for your life

Well I'm feeling strong about right and wrong (Ooo yeah)
And I don't take trouble for very long.
I got somethin' deep inside of me
Courage is the thing that keeps us free

I am a real American
Fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
Fight for what's right - Fight for your life

I am a real American
Fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
Fight for what's right - Fight for your life

If you hurt my friends, can you hurt my pride
I gotta be a man, I can't let it slide
I am a real American
Fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
Fight for what's right - Fight for your life

-- This song is filled with such unwielding uncreative theme and unknowingly patriotic lyrics. I don't know why it's not bigger than it already is. It tells us so many different, but important lessons in only three minutes and forty-seven seconds. Look at those lyrics! Generic? Yes. Forumlaric? Yes. But is there a message there? You bet there is.

Being an American is fighting for the rights of every man. It's not coming crashing down when it hurts inside, it's taking a stand. It's not letting people hurt your friends, and remembering courage is the thing that keeps us free.
Because, if you'll remember, your history correctly, that's exactly the thing keeping America free with it's ideals and beliefs.

Got the Ric Flair DVD for Christmas. I highly reccomend, because it shows the wrestling world why exactly Flair's known as the Man. Facing Steamboat, Sting, Funk, Race, even Hunter, and it's all on there! The Mick Foley compilation is coming out, and I might wanna reserve a copy. That one looks excellent as well, and I can hardly wait.

I thought I got fired last night at work. You want to know why I thought this? I didn't pay attention and I wasn't busy. So I thought I heard Teddy tell me to go home and find another place to work. Which is sad, but fortunately, that's not what he said. I didn't pay attention, I heard the wrong thing. I'm happy I'm not fired...I've never had a bad boss, and I guess that counts as a blessing. ...looks like I am to be heading off to school. Wish me fun.
