Right. I thought I recognised a few of those fellows. There was Elliott, Arnold, a few other assorted congressmen.

I for one, do not have cable. Probably never will. I like the idea that I don't have to pay to watch most events when they are aired on the regular channels.

Me to. We only pay once, everytime we buy something at the supermarket.
There ain't no discounts if you have cable.....ya pay double.

I've had moments when I was flustered/stressed that I suddenly couldn't recall my own zip code when I was asked or gave it with the last two numbers transposed. Celebrities are human with nerves and stress and sleepless nights just like everyone else. I don't know why we expect perfection from them if we don't of ourselves.

I wonder as a safety net, a music stand with the actual sheet music for the anthem would be a good idea to have on hand. Maybe thinking about hitting some of those high notes is on a persons mind while singing the anthem.
