| Did you know Atkins was W4CGP? Certified Guitar Player. He could play!
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown |

| I did not know that he was an awesome guitar player and I recall first hearing him when my dad played one of his records when I was about 6 or 7 it was a few months later my dad borrowed a Gibson guitar from a co-worker and I started to learn to play - the guitar was just big enough that I couldn't play it upright so I started learning chords playing it flat tonight, it will be Glen Campbell

Oh stewardess,
I speak jive.
| I prefer Hoyt Axton, Waylon Jennings, Hank Sr and Jr, Willie, and Cash, but Merle is definitely cool, and Chet could definitely play. Roy Clark isn't half bad on the guitar, or Carl Perkins, either...
I've been on a Hank Sr and Buddy Holly kick lately, myself. |

| A few months ago I was looking for a Sukiyaki recipe and found the japanese song by Kyu Sakamoto. Original follows below. The Sukiyaki song, more properly called Ue O Muite Arukou. https://youtu.be/C35DrtPlUbcThis is the Chet Atkins instrumental cover, very smooth and warm. https://youtu.be/AnaHaIIRiIc

| well today I've been listening to Carly Simon, James Taylor and Santana I know, I know but for the life of me I just can't get into Santana - to me all of his music sounds the same - much like Boston - you hear one song and you've heard them all but on a positive note, I found another Merle Haggard and another Chet album...
