The song I have been liking most this year is Linda Ronstadt Different Drum
I grew up in Tucson, which is Ronstadt's hometown. I can't recall ever seeing her there but I do remember, vaguely, browsing through her father's hardware store - named Ronstadt's. Yeah, what a voice... her version of Blue Bayou is something else... and she is so damn beautiful. ... young teenager angst recollection!

Because it is her birthday.... "My Woman, My Woman, My Wife" by Martu Robbins. Happy Birthday, Hon. I love you - more than yesterday, less than tomorrow.

Have you tried that? Looking for answers? Or have you been content to be terrified of a thing you know nothing about?
Are you pushing your own short comings on us and safely hating them from a distance?
Is this the virtue of faith? To never change your mind: especially when you should?
Young Earth Creationists take offense at the idea that we have a common heritage with other animals. Why is being the descendant of a mud golem any better?
Confidence being an expectation built on past experience, evidence and extrapolation to the future. Faith being an expectation held in defiance of past experience and evidence.

While 'Heart of Glass' is a song I've liked since forever it was only a few days ago that I heard buried within it (at the 1:50 mark) what I consider to be the best PSA ever. The content is good, and the form impeccable!
