Tomorrow is the Kentucky Derby. As the horses are walked out onto the track, there is always the emotional song by Stephen Foster "My Old Kentucky Home." However,the words have been changed to accomodate the new time. I wonder how long it will be before the word "gay" is changed. "Darkies" was replaced with "people. Anyways, it is always exciting. http://www.50states.com/songs/kentucky.htm
