"Taps" isn't a complicated song, just 24 notes total. The melody was written by a U.S. Civil War general who didn't like the old "Lights Out" bugle call.

He wrote "Taps" 150 years ago. And in order to commemorate that anniversary, nearly 200 buglers and trumpeters gathered at Arlington National Cemetery over the weekend.

Well, this is part of the 150th anniversary of "Taps." And we're one of over 200 buglers that have been invited here today to give the playing of bugles all over Arlington Cemetery -- National Cemetery, I should add.

If this doesn't make you proud to be an American, I don't know what's wrong with you.

It's just such an honor to play that for them. It's for the family, as well. But I think of it as playing to that person just a final thank you for what they did.

Today's Shoutout goes out to Miss. Borman's classes at Washington Middle School in Evansville, Indiana.

What does the prefix amphi- mean?

You know what to do.

Does it mean loud, both, water or split?

You've got three seconds.Go.

Amphi means both, like an amphibian , which can live both on land and in water. That's your answer and that's your Shoutout.

Today's Before We Go report is about something that's amphibious, but we're not talking about a frog. This is a car. And it is fast. It looks fast. On land, this thing goes up to 180 miles per hour. And after you take it for a spin, you can take it for a swim. Top speed in the water, a little over 60, which is pretty fast for that.

It's called the Sea Lion and it took an engineer six years to design and build it. This kind of thrill ride doesn't come cheap. In fact, you might not believe me if I told you how much it costs. It's nearly 260,000 bucks.

No lying, see?

Now, hopefully, there are some interested buyers who will spend that much. Otherwise, I gas this amphibious car idea might just be washed up.

It's time for us to hit the road after treading over a few puns.

And we will look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.
