We have a similar rule in our house. Whoever has the remote has to switch
channels within 1.5 seconds of seeing CarrotTop, or they have to give up the
remote.

I remember the race in the movie American Graffitti coming right off the

Followed by a a stroll through a park that had velvet petunias and maple
trees with red white and blue leaves.

Why do you hate America. :-)

BTW, Jimi Hendrix played The Star Spangled Banner (at Woodstock). I've
never heard his rendition of America the Beautiful, but I don't watch
