At random: John Philip Holland built several submarines before the USS Holland, which became the first undersea craft commissioned by the U.S. Navy. The Holland was purchased on April 11, 1900 for a price of $150,000. It was commissioned into the US Navy on October 12, 1900.

Happy Australian Day to all Aussies. Have a good day and don't get anything on you that won't wash off when you're out celebrating.

Great music! I also like the one of the front porch swing. The correct title escapes me right now. CRS don't cha know.

Great sounds, Blue. Now there ya see I knew we would eventually find sounds we both like!
Now if I could just get you to sing Dixie, then I will sing Walzing Matilda!!!!
I'm dusting off those brogans for your visit! (and I'll tell Ralph to bring the Soalarcane).

I'm anything but a pacifist or apologist, but there's one song that reminds me of the costs of war - and it's Australian.

It's "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda". Click on the link below and then start the video presentation.

A tribute to Australian courage and stupid non-Australian leadership, and a reminder to us all.

Regards, DBF, Coyote
