In America, you either succeed or you fail. Either way, when they close the curtains, you’re either driven away by a white horse or a black Cadillac. If you fail there is always a fleeting chance for success & redemption. If you succeed, a monument of stone will be constructed in your honor. - - Work hard and you can have anything that you desire. Born poor??? Pull yourself up by your bootstraps, pull up your Levis and dig in your heels. For great shall be your reward. This country was founded by second rate charlatans, dogged whores, gentleman farmers, polymaths, jack-of-all-trades and above all else Freedumb Seekers. Don’t lament for America…for America will always remain an industrious democratic republic full of hot pussy and syphilis. If you read this far, U R an American!!!

Freedumb Fest 2012 occurred on September 11, 12 & 13th 2008.
The 4th anniversary of the original Freedumb Fest 2005 in observance of September 11th, the most American holiday yet. Patriot Day is now listed on most calendars on the date of 9-11. Freedumb Fest is not yet listed on most calendars except for those of the most patriotic noise makers from Stone Mountain to Red Mountain to Philadelphia Mountain to New York Mountain. For them, this is the zenith of noise music events.
***God Bless Freedumb Fest***

Uncle Sam, is a popular name for the government of the United States. The most widely used and recognizable image of Uncle Sam comes from a World War I Army Recruiting poster created by James Montgomery Flagg in 1917. Our image of Uncle Sam since then has mostly been defined by Flagg’s portrayal of a stern looking man with white hair pointing at the viewer, but even that lasting image was influenced by numerous interpretations by various artists over the years.
The name “Uncle Sam” originally came from a man named Samuel Wilson who was an inspector of beef and pork, in Troy, N. Y. He inspected the meat purchased for the government after the declaration of war against England in 1812. A contractor named Elbert Anderson purchased a quantity of provisions, and the barrels were marked "E. A.," the initials of his name, and "U. S.," for United States. The latter initials were not familiar to Wilson's workmen, who inquired what they meant. A facetious fellow answered, "I don't know, unless they mean 'Uncle Sam.' " A vast amount of property afterwards passed through Wilson's hands, marked in the same way, and he was rallied on the extent of his possessions. The joke spread, and it was not long before the initials of the United States were regarded as "Uncle Sam," which name has been in popular parlance ever since. Even a popular song says: "Uncle Sam is rich enough to give us all a farm." So, by 1820, Uncle Sam was sometimes used as a term for the United States.
The popular image of Uncle Sam did not emerge until around the time of the Civil War, and was defined in large part by Thomas Nast, a very popular illustrator of the time. Nast was also responsible for our popular images of Santa Claus, the Republican Elephant, and the Democratic Donkey. Nast's first illustration of Uncle Sam appeared in the November 20, 1869 edition of Harper's Weekly.
While the exact image of Uncle Sam has evolved over the years, one thing remains constant. He is a unifying symbol that represents the best ideals of the United States: Freedom, Equality, and Justice.
All that being said, he is still, in the end, an icon of propaganda. Today, however, Uncle Sam’s call to arms no longer seems to be an invitation to fight against tyranny abroad. His finger now points at us all as if to say: “You're guilty, and I will get you."
