"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. ”

Georgia on a Fast Train
Look, there's not going to be much politics from here until after January 5th, which is my 50th Birthday.
Until then, here's the greatest country singer/songwriter you've never heard of, Billy Joe Shaver. Enjoy.
Not a country fan, but that was more along the lines of Johnny Cash or Steve Earle. REAL country I can handle, some Toby Keith rhinestone cowboy crap I can do without.
That was good. The guitarist wanted to cut loose, I can tell these things. ;)

Same thing at the 'Coma. And Billy Joe rocks!
I've had the pleasure of co-writing with him. He's one crazy guy. He and my ex were close. Go figure. ;)
