Southern Gentility Is Evocative To Me.

My Dad And I Had A Real Meeting Of The Minds. We Loved To Talk About Music, Politics, And Art. He Loved Children. The Thing I Missed Most About My Dad When He Died Was That This Person Who Really Gets Who I Am At The Core Was Gone.

When My Dad Died A Lot Of Songs Came, And They're Still Coming.

I Am So Sick Of Reading About Another Car Bomb, Another Suicide Bomber, Another 10, 20, 30, 70, 100 People Dead In A Day, Both Americans And Iraqis.

War Is Idiocy. We Live On A Small, Small Planet, And What We Do To Others Is What We Do To Ourselves

I Have A Real Worker-bee Mentality. Just Show Up, Just Do It. Even If You Feel Like S--t And You Think You're Terrible And You'll Never Get Better And It Will Never Go Anywhere, Just Show Up And Do It. And, Eventually, Something Happens.
