Winter Thoughts....and memories...


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I went walking in the snow...humming this song....even though I first heard this song at a Concert in 1995.....my son was 4...and he really wanted to see Chuck Barry....and Little Richard....and yes, the opening act was Mary Chapin Carpenter....I had never heard her...I was amazed....but this song reminds me of that hot summer night...the warm 4 year old hand sticky with popcorn and coke....and how his little head smelled of the setting sun and coppertone....my sunkist sleepy son exploring music....it seems like it was yesterday.....

Silent Warrior....

So the video is "Silent Warrior" by Enigma, as many of us did feel it was a silent raging battle in the Bush Years.........and many of us blogged on...late night writers heaving our angst on the keyboard...and screens...
