"Flying the flag of the United States of America, Old Glory"
The ROAR Show School Assembly Program would like to wish the United States a Happy Birthday on the 4th of July, 2011.
The ROAR Show is an enrichment, motivational, school show that teaches elementary school children about respecting others and acting responsibly. Respect doesn't end with people but should also include our country. By flying our flag on national holidays we can show respect to the United States and the people who have served for us.
As a reminder, from Al The Respect Guy, if you are going to fly the flag after sunset, it should be lit.
“Respect is love in plain clothes.”

I had two quick things to pick up at the grocery store. There was only one gentleman in line before me. He only had five items. When it came time to pay for his purchase, he swiped his credit card and it was declined. The clerk suggested that he try to swipe his card a second time. Again it didn’t work. He swore he had plenty of credit. The customer then tried to call his card company to find out what was wrong. The clerk was very patient, but by this time there were three more costumers who got in line behind me. After not being able to reach the credit card company quickly the customer used another credit card to complete his purchase. What should have taken me a few minutes to run into the store, make my purchase and leave, now seemed like an eternity. What happened next surprised me and impressed me beyond measure. As the gentleman pick up his bag of groceries he turned to all of us behind him and apologized for the delay and any inconvenience he may have caused us! Was he being respectful by apologizing or just using common courtesy? He is what I call a true gentleman. He really brought home the message of The ROAR Show, which is Respect Others and Act Responsibly.

Unlikely Friendships: 50 Remarkable Stories from the Animal Kingdom
By: Jennifer Holland
Friendships begin with similar interests, out of respect and sometimes need. I found this article in the June 26th, 2011 issue of Parade Magazine about most unusual friendships called "Best Friends Forever" by Joanne Kaufman. Ms. Kaufman writes about conservation biologist Jennifer Holland and her book Unlikely Friendships. Ms. Holland writes about extraordinary bonds between animals of different species. To see more photos of unusual best friends in the animal kingdom go to www.Parade.com/aminals. I think you'll like it.
