RIP Loretta Lynn — 4 Comments

  1. Honest work, very hard, plus lots of love – tho not too much time.

    Never liked this song much, and still don’t, but I never doubted the truth of it. And the world could use more truth and especially gratitude for what IS received, like new shoes in winter, rather than useless complainin’ about what is not there, like shoes in summer.

    No longer such a true song about US poverty, either. Today, “Those in the middle work much harder, but don’t earn much more, than those at the bottom.”

    Another icon of many of my contemporaries is passing. RIP

  2. I’m not a fan of country music despite having many friends in school whose parents were stars. Even my chemistry lab partner.

    But I like the folks who like it. And I like them a whole lot more than the people who look down their noses at it.

    Same for NASCAR and pro wrestling.
