> Since it's Veteran's Day weekend and I'm writing a book about being a good
citizen, I went on MSN  and  followed a link to"Top 10 Patriotic sites,"
foolishly thinking that this would be my gateway to some super-patriotic
internet sites. However, it turned out they were talking about patriotic
real estate such as the Statue of Liberty, Washington monument, the Alamo,
etc. Then I followed a link to Austin, Texas patriotic/historical sites and
found you guys have zillions of 'em. Good places to visit during a war :

The Austin Lounge Lizards did a song called _The Chester W Nimitz Home
Waltz_ about
a thwarted romance in the Japanese garden there. (Nimitz was from
Fritzburg..)
