October 30, 2007The King of Twang…R.I.P.
October 29, 2007Sorry, Shrew, but this just has to happen. On Monday, October 29th, Porter Wagoner passed away at the age of 80, from lung cancer.

And tell again
My old friend, I apologize

What Could Have Been…

Karma
October 21, 2007 Instant Karma, John Lennon
