    If I didn't see it with my own eyes I would never believe there's a bird powerful enough to take down a wolf!  My only question is why? Haven't wolves been persecuted enough without being targeted by falconers too! Nevertheless, beautiful and massive eagles! Thanks Louigi I think!

You are a brave girl MAK! Not sure myself why they would train an eagle to do that. My stomach is queasy already and I didn't even look at it. (WEAK)

Donna you're not weak just ultra sensitive! Not a bad trait to have in such a violent cruel world.

After seeing Christina Aguilera screw up the National Anthem in Sunday's Superbowl, I thought I'd offer a look back at Whitney Houston's singing of it in Superbowl XXV. If I remember correctly, the year was 1991 - the year that Scott Norwood missed what was to be the winning field goal 'wide to the right', sending Buffalo home winless in the first of their four Superbowl appearances.

HOWEVER, what really made this national anthem special for me, and perhaps for others, was this was  during the early days of Operation Desert Storm, in which we were all watching television broadcasts of US warplanes attacking Baghdad, Kuwait and other military targets in Iraq for the first time - while Iraq had launched SCUD missile attacks of their own only a handful of days before the Superbowl.  I remember how worried I was about the world.  But I also remember how proud I felt as she sung this song. This is how the song should be sung!

Star Spangled Banner(American Anthem) God Bless America

YES, YES, YES!!!!!

I remember watching her sing...had tears! Great video Paul. Thank you!

Clearly, no other person has sung the anthem as well as Whitney did at that superbowl. I remember it well!

Don't rock the Anthem. Don't hop-hop it. Don't pimp it. Don't boogie it. Just sing it right! Get some high school kid from the neighbourhood and ask him or her to do it right! It does not need twists and turns and rubbish phrasing. Sing it straight! I am always soooooo embarrassed when I hear these hot rock people go at it. Just get up there, cut the rubbish and sing! Hand on heart and sing!

I'm with you!  Our National Anthem isn't some trendy rock song.  I feel the same about what some of them do to Christmas Carols.  Keep the theatrics on the stage at THEIR OWN concerts, and spare us the rubbishing of classics.

Go, Carol! For next year's SB, let's suggest they get the high school choir to do it... and give the residuals to the school!!!
