Rise And Shout


I'm a little disappointed that the BYU fight song is no longer up for sale. I guess we will have to withdraw my bid. I was prepared to pay a pretty penny for the rights to that song. Besides showing Cougar Pride, I was hoping to fulfill a lifelong dream of bringing back the original lyrics to the song. It sure would have made a beautiful anniversay gift to the biggest Cougar fan I know, Kris Tina. Almost as good as the star I had named "Go Cougs" for her last year. Of course I would have let BYU continue to use the song . . . for a small fee. I guess we will never know. I will have to fall back on plan B which is trying to buy the rights to Give Said the Little Stream.

Um over my dead body will you be spending our hard earned money on something so ridiculous as the cougar fight song. (Go Cougs) I don't even know the words to it. That's right--I couldn't even hum the tune. So much for my coug pride. My blood doesn't run blue.

That's so sweet of you to have named a star for KT! And I can't think of a more appropriate name than Go Cougs.

Don't worry, KTC, it's not to late to leave the dark side and come over into the light of the true University. I'd be happy to set up a tutorial on the fight song for you with my four and three year old nephews. They know every word.

Goooooooooooooo COUGARS!

Oh Abby--you just made me throw up in my mouth a little bit. Stop with your incessant BYU blue pride because honestly---it is ridiculous!

1 Ne. 16:1-2
"And now it came to pass that after I, Nephi, had made an end of speaking to my brethren, behold they said unto me: Thou has declared unto us hard things, more than we are able to bear.

"And it came to pass that I said unto them that I knew that I had spoken hard things against the wicked, according to the truth; and the righteous have I justified...; wherefore, the guilty taketh the truth to be hard, for it cutteth them to the very center."

Amen.

Oh Abby---you really really really need to stop living in the bible belt!

Abby, thank you for trying to show KT the ways of the Cougar. Keep it up, she needs it.

Go Cougs!!
