The Litkicks Community (edit)
Please excuse me but I needed to remove this post. If you want to read it, it is posted on M.O.O.L. or Freedom Hall. It was the result of an emotional day and it has become apparent to me that I should have waited until I was feeling better to post something in a more positive light...

Dear Levi:
The Internet and cyber-missives present a strange conundrum:
There we find the illusion of intimacy and shared proclivities without the sacrifices demanded by a genuine "community"--e.g. I don't have top give up some of my water so your family can irrigate, etc.. (cf"The Milagro Beanfield War" by John Nichols).
But your generosity, struggle for clarity and reluctance to become angry and strike out arbitrarily are qualities I have always admired.
And your prose sings pretty damned sweetly, too.
Thanks for all the space and freedom of movement you have provided for my words in the past.
Nice to see your "cyber-flicker" again. Perhaps some day we can meet face to face and I can hear you strum your guitar and warble some vocables.
I'm still pretty strong for an old man of 60. There may just be enough time.
As Zorba says, "to be a man is to undo your belt and look for trouble."
It's lovely to see your gentle, wise-beyond-your-years and passionate self among us.

hi ya Z
My man....you must read the dictionary every night, (catching up on your diction).....and to be a man is to undo your belt and look for trouble?....I like what Johnny Cash used to sing:
"I keep my pants up with a piece of twine,
I keep my fly wide open all the time,
I keep my eye on these pants of mine,
Just say you're mine,
I'll pull the twine."...
"I keep my pants up with a piece of twine,
I keep my fly wide open all the time,
I keep my eye on these pants of mine,
Just say you're mine,
I'll pull the twine."...

Actually, JC never said that.
But it's a nice improvisation I've heard for years from my drunken, improvising friends.
I played bluegrass for about 30 years, so Alabama is not foreign territory.
It's great to be in touch, Toe.
Nathan Bedford Forrest was a poet too, after his fashion.
