Considering that I am a big Angels fan, I had to post this for you. This is a repost from Conservative Cowboy's Site!
Back in the Saddle Again
Today marks the Gene Autry Centennial!
What an occasion. The 100th Birthday of Public Cowboy #1. I cannot explain how much Gene Autry means to me. He is indeed a personal hero of mine. Gene Autry was not just a cowboy, and singing cowboy entertainer, but he was a model American. A Freemason (and the personification of what being a Master Mason means), Owner of the Angels baseball team, and the only person to this day to have a star on the Hollywood walk of Fame in ALL 5 categories. A man among men. A true hero, and certainly a man I wish we had more of today.
Gene Autry was the inspiration behind the Cowboy Code Marshals. A role model for America's youth.God Bless you Gene. May you and Champ ride where the trail meets the sky, back in the saddle again...
