    Cover Songs That Kick The Original

    This is one of my favorites. It's difficult to top LZ and I don't claim this does. But, it's really great.

    Cover Songs That Kick The Original

    That's an incredible cover that I didn't know about. I would love to hear Metallica do it as well. Their sound would be a great mix of the original and LB.

    Family Addition

    We had a beagle yrs ago. She was great, but, once she had her nose down she was off and running. One of my saddest days is when we had to put her down due to old age. We still have her ashes and a marker in the garden. RIP Stormy.

    I Need To Vent

    @King Bulldog , talking with my Priest always helps me. They talk to a lot of people in grief and have a ton of perspective of life. Couldn't hurt.

    Praise to Peretti

    I ❤️ ljp. Their English blends can't be beat. The burley is 👌. 150th flake is one of my favorite VA since the 🦄 flew away. I haven't dove into the cavendish yet though.

    Remembering McClelland Red Virginias

    Who Has a Job He Actually Loves?

    Hmm. I have been at the same employer for 16 yrs. I am the warranty manager for top rv dealer. I have gotten numb to the job over the years as everyone, customer and employee wants what they want. However, manufacturers pay my bill and have the say in what they will pay. People are rarely, if...

    Iconic Movies that Disappoint.

    I must be a smooth brain as I love just about every movie and actor that's been mentioned. I especially love the King universe. My favorite book to film is, "The Body" = "Stand by Me". Even have the poster hung up in my media room. I myself try not to watch a movie with a critics eye, just the...

    Irrational Fear.

    I used to be fearless in my youth. Was a pretty high level athlete in football. Never had a serious injury during all that bashishing. Now at 46.

    Was watching Joe Rogan and his guest was commenting on how different eastern Europe and Russia are from the west in thought, history and how things are done. A very interesting book. And as a history buff type, I recognized that I new very little about this region.
