    Hi! You were making me (and later my husband when I showed him just now) laugh so hard with your limericks about Ron D on Trae Crowder’s short video, I decided to some over & see if you had a channel. And holy cow!! Did you write all the amazing lyrics of those songs posted 8-9 yrs ago? And great melodies too…loved that blues song “ball and chain”. Heck, I loved them all! I have a feeling you may be a Vietnam vet; if so, thank you so much for your service! You look to be about the same age as my oldest brother (HS Class of ‘67). My dad was a US Army Air Force veteran in WWII. No marines (Semper Fi) in my fam, all US Army..or USAAF, then USAF. I really do hope you’ve had/still have a recording career. Wish I could quote 1 of your lyrics right now…the one about “justice without a sense of humor”…wow. Hope to see you commenting again on Trae’s videos…you & Trae help keep us sane, man! BTW: I grew up in Middle TN…same part of TN where Trae is from. It’s fun for me to hear his accent, & know that there’s a generation of Tennesseans (same gen as my adult son) who haven’t drunk the Kool-aid. I haven’t lived in TN since 1976, but I still visit my hometown. And just like here in SC..I have to be careful about speaking my mind bout politics there..same as here in SC…except I’d like to say that we’ve helped make this county in SC more purple than red over the past 35+ yrs 😁. I can’t believe I’m out there protesting s#&t again like I did in the 1970’s! Can you? Smdh. 🤪✌️
