Sounds like someone somewhere needed to laugh and enjoy the music.

Both will be missed. I Walk the Line and sing the Folsom Prison Blues with a Boy Named Sue.

What the heck is the name of that show?! Anyway, I, too, loved JR, although in a very distinctly different way than my love for the Man in Black (which he first donned at the Grand Ole Oprey at the young age of 25).

I tapped my toes as much as anyone when a Johnny Cash song came on but I was never a true fan. Maybe if PGH radio stations had played something besides Def Leppard and Eddie Money I’d know better…

I love 3’s company but Johnny Cash will forever be the man. As Rancid says in the title track of their new album “through music you will live forever” same is true about film.

It bothered me greatly, and I immediately changed the station. It’s not like comparing apples to oranges, as they are both huge entertainers, yet we could say it is like comparing Granny Smiths to Fujis, right? Each have their own great chracteristics (and one is better for baking). Okay, so I’m not great at analogies…but you get my drift, no?

Oh how we will miss you so down at our ron de’vou… or was that dom on on a vou?? RIP Jack…we shall all salute you with a “stiff one” at the Regal Begal.
