Here they are again if anyone is interested.
At Last Lyrics by Etta James
At last, my love has come along My lonely days are over And life is like a song Oh, yeah, at last The skies above are blue My heart was wrapped up in clovers The night I looked at you I found a dream that I could speak to A dream that I can call my own I found a thrill to rest my cheek to A thrill that I have never known Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile Oh, and then the spell was cast And here we are in heaven For you are mine At last

12. It was great listening to them talk to one another. |
|
I'm not sure why. But I liked it. It sounded...dignified and respectful, I guess.

13. And the cheer when he said Shinseki's name |
|
Also the genuine way he chatted with the Illinois guard members. You could see they were nervous, but that melted when he asked whether the one soldier was from the west side or south side.
