Blues News

There was a miserable husband of McNigh
Who had a tendency to frequently cry.
His wife filed for divorce
Causing him no remorse.
Now he’s happy as a drunk drinking rye.

This can't be about you. Or, at least, not that picture of you. August 27, 2016 is our 50th. I just spent all morning pulling weeds. Guess I am the only one left doing that. Jim Horn

Congratulations, James, on your 50th (you're probably thinking "How did we get so old"). The photo is of me, but it was taken circa the Jurassic period. Oh, I pull weeds, but they always prevail by summer's end. Thanks for commenting.
