Still young at 90 and still fighting the good battle.
i feel so happy and lucky i was at the MSG for the concert
I felt so privileged to have been at MSG that night to bear witness to one of our greatest national treasures.
I only hope I can go to his 100th birthday bash!
I shut it off halfway into the 3rd act’s rewrite of “Mr. President.” When they started babbling about dumbing down of America and sending him (Bush) back to Texas. Why the hate? Move on. Yes you can. I didn’t vote for Obama, but think he’s doing a good job so far. I don’t think that group’s performance (Bush-bashing) was in the spirit of the event. They should have sung the original.
