I wonder what happened that started Lost Sock Memorial day. Maybe all the socks we've lost in washing machines?

Buffalo Bill Cody- pony express rider, Civil War soldier, buffalo hunter, scout, and showman. Murphy Brown great show! Billy Joel- the great entertainer, "The Stranger" was his masterpiece of an album!
