Wherever you are. :)

Am I the last person, on the bored, to see him alive? If so, I didn't do it. :)

I saw him live in Austin on March 28, 1977, 141 days before he died.
The tour then moved on to Austin on the 28th, and, wearing the King Of Spades suit, Elvis performed the final ever version of Steamroller Blues the crowd would hear him sing.
Don't remember that song.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.

Wendy likes it, and plays it a lot.

I like it, but prefer the James Taylor version.
