Back home again in Indiana,
And it seems that I can see
The gleaming candlelight, still shining bright,
Through the sycamores for me.
The new-mown hay sends off its fragrance
Through the fields I used to roam.
When I dream about the moonlight on the Wabash,
How I long for my Indiana home.HOO HOO HOO HOOSIERS !

A tragedy, no. Will we miss his being there, yes. Will the show go on, yes.

It's always a tragedy when old, rich men get sick.

Andrew, you will be old some day. likely not rich, but old....
As for Nabors and the Indiana anthem....well it is a hokey tradtion that made Indy Indy...but at some point, Ole Jim will be watching from heaven, and they will have to dig up some other guy who only does one gig a year.....
Sometimes...all the pagentry at some events just sort of goes into the red zone on the ole Corn meter...."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".
I wouldn't put any money on that. His name is not Bernie. :p
