I propose we change our National Anthem to "O Canada"
As a tribute to their better health care, and it's easier to sing.

1. Other than being in French, "La Marseillaise" is much more rousing.
Plus, they have damn good healthcare in France.

4. I recently heard the original beer song tune of the Star Spangled Banner
on a book on cd that I had.

Ironically, at the moment I am posting this, I am watching "Have Gun Will Travel".
