I told this story before, but it has been a while.

I think it was the summer of '84. I got laid off and was looking

Came home one warm summer evening. As I walked up to the house, my loving wife had cued up one of my old 45's:

Get a Job - The Silhouettes

Yes, it was a joke and I still laugh when I recall that.

"Working on the Railroad"

Yeah, me, too. We sang that and many more American heritage songs in elementary and junior high. Those were so great. I still love "Working on the Railroad" and "Home on the Range." We took long car trips every two years from upstate New York to visit many relatives in the West and those songs always conjured up images of the west in me.
