A child of the Southwest and of the 50s -- a woman who knew me well once said, 'Yeah, the 1850s.' Generally culturally conservative and distrustful of new and improved innovative change. Very seldom overtly serious, but many a truth is spoke in jest and all of my truths are. Worked my way through UT when I was up in my 30s. If I'd, by some horrible miscalculation ended up in Bryan, I would've worked my way through that school over there. Have worked all over in printing and publishing. I've held a bunch of jobs and quit all of them but one. I am a journeyman printer and followed the trade and heard its dying gasps as it was throttled by technological change. I had a sponsored blog on a newspaper but quit the job.

Love it! This is the family I divorced...
Loon, My mother loved this, she adored Robert Earl Keen. Did you know he actually wrote a small book based on this song, also? Simply hilarious.
A fine holiday to you and yours, Loon.
=ly, Shug. Didn't know about the book, but it sure makes me laugh.
