So you think Griswold can stand on its own against Obamacare and not have impact on a review of Roe?

Obviously it will have an impact, but I think the issue in Griswold and the arguments regarding Liberty are more forcefully enunciated in Griswold. Roe was a terrible piece of judicial activism. Griswold, however, touched on the idea that certain liberties are fundamental and were fundamental at the time the Constitution was enacted. Clearly abortion was not a historical liberty, whereas Contraception was.

What instrument frustrated you?

My frustration is not with the instruments, but in the fact that I can't make a decent living playing the darn things. I am a jack of all instruments and master of none. In the course of my life I have played the piano, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, tuba, french horn, saxophone, violin, flute, drums, bongos, acoustic and electric guitars, 5 string banjo, mandolin, electric and acoustic bass, harmonica, ukulele, and native flute.

Ok violin and acoustic guitar I can use. I am piano only and vocals. Can you pick in a bluegrass way?

Here’s the thing, I write songs and sell them. I am in the vein and genre of Robert Lee Castleman but he is also a performer. He’s successful that way because his compositions are hits with Alison Krauss. I have found that good composition can lead to better opportunities than performing well. Also I can do it in spare time :)

I know that making a living by performing is about as easy as winning the lottery, you have to be visible, be at the right place at the right time etc. It’s 1 in 10,000 at least.

What I need is someone to help arrange the guitar and violin sections and score the tabs for compositions. I can pay. Freepmail some links to your music or what you can do!
