That's where I met my baby on one hot summer night
He was the tender and I ordered a beer

Ummm... something you want to share with us slings?

This was my wife’s and my song about our relationship.

She passed away 50 weeks ago today.

We were the couple most likely not to succeed. We almost made it to 20 years.

I miss her dearly, but she suffered through cancer or over 9 9 years and never complained.

I hope to see her in heaven, unless she talks to St. Peter and reminds him of all my faults. :)

This song was the closing for the end of the series finale of “Northern Exposure.”

Good point.
I made you a song... of joy.

I had a dream about...
some shrieking rats
With red hot pokers,
and big pointy hats
They didn't listen to my cries...
or screams
But took their nastiness
to *wild* extremes!

(at this point my muse was put on a prozac drip.)
