You might have to head out West.

By the way, Bound for Glory; one of my favorite movies. Did you see that?

No. I have seen bits and pieces but never caught the whole thing at once.

I may have to hit Amazon and remedy that.

Midnight Rider,

They're pretty, but what's with the old sad songs?

midnight rider said...

Well, you may have noticed I have a penchant for sad old songs though they usually have a Bluesier or Jazzier beat to them :)

But in this particular case it is all just part of the Depression theme of the post. And Woody Guthrie was one of, if not the, greatest singer/songwriter of it and the Dust Bowl.

As for why the post itself it is sort of a Those Who Fail to Learn from History piece. And in this, as in so many other areas, we are failing to learn from history.

Bad things are coming I fear.

Midnight Rider,

That makes sense. I have a lot of fear about what's coming as well. A lot of things are not looking good right now.

midnight rider said...

Exactly.
