In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

I Never Met Johnny Winter...

...but I know someone that did.

I went to school with a girl that married a former roadie of Johnny Winter. They were friends, so she got to see him, when he came to town.

She adored him, although she didn't have the same affection for Edgar. She liked Johnny's down-to-earth attitude and once commented on his long fingers, which she described as "kinda freaked her out".

Anyway, Johnny passed away. He hasn't been in good health for years and one of the newer videos I saw of him revealed time, and his former lifestyle, had taken almost all he had left.

The man was one of the best guitarists, if not the best blues guitarists.
