The last time I saw Pete Seeger, in 1986, it didn't cost me a dime.

So I figure I owe him.

Hell.

I figure I owe a lot of people.

And I'll be damned if, just because I'm doing alright these days, that I'm going to let the Snooklandians and their ilk pull up the ladder on all those people just so the ilk and the assorted sundry cronies can get even richer than Richie Rich ever was.

OK?

Latest Sunday Setlist, in which I pine for the Spring (training) time, is....

And, finally....If you're still looking for those Holiday Advent Tunes (and judging by hitcounter, which has now crested 150,000,  a select group of you are), you can find them if you scroll on down the page... They are also archived, top to bottom.....Here

"Pay me..." Very nice Ross--an appropriate anthem for the hundreds of paramedics who have filed grievances for not being paid for work performed:
