I hadda go and play this after a long day with very light lunch, right as it's getting to be dinner time. Working in Prague this week - now I gotta find me a Czech greasy spoon. It'll be beer, not coffee.

In memory of my Friend who was bigger than life, and an ego the size of Lake Superior.
Lyrics:
High stepping, loud talking
Crazy S.O.B.

I wish I would have had the chance

Remember when Rick was in his office and Jim dropped his pen on the floor.
Jim had to lay his head on his desk to reach his pen.
Rick thought he had a
heat attack and was afraid he may have to give him mouth to mouth. Of
course Rick told the story so good he had us all cracking up.
I still miss those days. Great group of people. Super One was growing so fast and
everyone's sales were way up and we just had fun. Is Rick retired?

Just a few stories recieved on email regarding our friend:
Eric always tells the store about when Jim was trying to get into his
little Buick Skylark to go to lunch. Of course because Jim was so big he
had to hold on the top of the car and lower himself in. Well Eric decides
to wash his windshield and shoots washer fluid all over Jim while he's
stuck trying to get in the car. Eric had to pay to dry clean his suit.

I've been thinking lately of all the stories about him. Like when I would take him out to lunch. He'd order some big thing like the broiled trout, toss salad with oil and vinegar and more.
Then the waitress would look at me. I would say "I'll have what Dad's having".
He would erupt claiming "I'm not your father you Bastard!"
Good Times ... Good Times! I still giggle when I think about some of his antics.

I remember when he bought his first BMW. I asked him what kind of millage he got. He said "Who gives a shit"

I was in his office trying to present some promotion. He dropped his head on the desk when I mentioned the price, and it scared the hell out of me.
I thought he had a heart attack, and I was going to have to give him mouth to mouth

An old song (2009) Started off as one thing ended up as this. No, don't know Rose, wish I did though !!! Or, is it about the good wife ??? Or, is it about.......
What if Bo Peep were a bit of a b*tch? If I knew her when she was like that, I might write a song like this.

Hey, Bo.
Where did they all go?
Hey Bo.
What do you know?
Maybe I could help you
In your quest.
Maybe I could…
The lyrics for this song were inscribed on the headstone when the legendary character Tom Thumb died. Inge did the vocals for this song and did a wonderful job. The harmonies, along with the a capella intro and coda, are hers, and take the song…
Growing up in Ohio we used to see the signs the hoboes left on trees and mailboxes. Bits of ribbons and cloth-signifying friendly,and-cold hearted bastards who'd sic the dogs on you.
a new song I'm working on ... recorded on an iphone ... lyrics below ... enjoy (or cry your eyes out ...) ... love to hear what you think.
It's been a year, four months and a day
Since that time you slipped away
Disappeared right out of…
I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that.
Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.
I thought I was going to have us record a cleaner version of this - this is a live take from a Christmas service. I wrote a song to tag along after the end of one my favorite songs ever, The Star Carol. Today's endless streaming of snow, still…
This year will be my fifth year coaching one of my daughters in tee ball, and although I played ball competitively into my thirties, coaching the kids is easily the most fun I've ever had on the diamond.

Unexpected style . . . and enjoyable
Good story telling and good picking John!
Ukelele? . . . nice touch.
Nice piano and story telling.
I got a chuckle out of the title. Great attention getter!
I had to stop for a little more Chuck Berry this afternoon.
Very touching message, and smooth delivery.
Very Pretty Terry . . . You old Softy!
Good One!
This really caught my attention. It's different and very interesting.
I'm waiting for the video now! I want to see you do the "Chuck Berry" across the stage. You got the vibe here. My feet are tapping.
Good Lyrics and your guitar playing is always a treat.
It's a Chart Buster! The birds really got my attention. Is that a 12 string? Yahoo . . . Spring is coming !!!!
I like it. It just bounces along effortlessly.
I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that. Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.
A nice unexpected surprise! Well Done!
Yes, this is a good one! I'll put it on the "Spring Time" album when the time comes.
Nice Rich guitar sound, and melancholy vocal. Good combination.
Interesting ... It brought to mind a video that I have of the Grateful Dead.
Good lyrics . . . as usual. Great "Easy Listening" Song!
