Farewell, You Surly Cowboy 🤠 

To save a little time,

Posting a search of my blog where I mentioned Imus, Don Imus

He’s leaving his current Radio 📻 Show 

Heading to higher pastures

I haven’t opened this file before posting 

Hope you find some amusement here...

I wanted to do an autoharp tune for his last day.

I got the harp tuned up and it felt good to strum on it and sing 🎶 

Alas, I failed to record anything and still want to explain what a nice instrument 

The Autoharp is.

Fairly simple, gratifying sounds.

So wanted to suggest to Imus that he get one.

Quickest way to play perfect chords 😎🤠

Finally a video for him.

Been nice all these years...

It certainly was a treat this week to hear these two great musicians 
with Byron Isaacs and Justin Guip on the imus show.
They have finally made their own album, 
We have been impatiently waiting.

Veteran's Issues: Link to Wes Moore interview

Heard this interview yesterday on the Imus show.
Actually, streaming WABC in NYC over the internet. Came in clear as a bell. No static.
Wes wrote a book about returning veterans.
It really helps to understand the cognitive framework, the "matrix" if you will. Wes gets it.
I felt like I had personally been focusing on my Dad's service, WW 2, Marines. South Pacific.
He said they saw no combat. They "did nothing" therefore it was to be negated.
When I saw his papers, finally, after he is stuck in a CVA limbo at 91, He was at Guadalcanal.
I also saw how the Japanese would not mess with marines as much?
Well Wes got me thinking again.
How was Dad rewired?
How easy was it to get him to serve? His Prussian Grandfather immigrated to the US to avoid mandatory service. Then Dad and my brother served in wars: Dad in WW2, My Brother in Vietnam. Another brotherand his son in the guards.
I was fortunate to care for veterans of all current wars. They are indeed a special group. I just never could put my finger on it.
Wes is putting it all to words.
