Survival as what? A country isn't a rock. And it isn't an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for, when standing for something is the most difficult. Before the people of the world...this is what we stand for: justice, truth... and the value of a single human being."

Tune for my grandbaby Charlotte is one I wrote some years ago for the logging men who called themselves Shanty Boys.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

I'm a musician. As such I learn from masters/teachers/recordings, I try to copy their work as best I can. I have learned from that BECOMING the master/master's art is not possible. The gap between what I do and what I copy is my style

Grapes of Wrath. That's the one that keeps rising to my mind. Might have to re-read it too.

Ok, finally canceled Amazon Prime. Signed up for PBS streaming account (cheaper and better programming by volume). Only rarely shop Target, never Sam's, but will be dead goddamn certain to never let a dollar go to a company that lines up with the fascists if I can help it. Better late than never
