320 also exemplifies why I support keeping old farts around, as he has grown on me a lot over the years, and is now one of my favorite posters on the Porch

Merry Christmas you old fart (from this old fart)

And happy holidays to everyone ... including of course the Sooner faithful cheering for a big victory on Jan 1!

Really?  Because I know pretty much what to think about anyone who wrote the above.
That he's not an old fart and knows who Randy Jackson is? 
How 'bout Willie Nelson?  Can you at least agree that he's awesome?  Can we all agree that a duet with Willie and Ray Charles was one of the coolest things ever to happen to music?

seven spanish angels.... great tune.
Willie and Merle doing the late great Townes Van Zant's "Poncho and Lefty" was also a milestone in country/western... that is one of the most well written and composed songs of all time.

I suppose there are people who have never had anything worse happen to them than encountering someone with different musical tastes.

As the great Mr. T would say, "I pity the fools!"

While that may be true... the yelling to get off your lawn, and the stench of mothballs would both die down dramatically.  I'd call that a good thing.

Perish the thought.

The intro to the Merle/Willie version of Pancho and Lefty always cracks me up.  It sounds like gameshow jingle music, doesn't fit the rest of the song at all.  But that's part of its charm.

Anyway, I'm a huge fan of Willie.  It's very tough for me to pick a favorite, but if I had to, it'd probably be this one:

So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

That lyric gives me chills every time.

I can agree Waylon is awesome.  And I can respect the opinion that Willie is awesome.  I like Willie, but Waylon always hit home with me.

I was able to overlook "Prince" being lumped into a conversation involving obvious Rock GODs, but then when <gulp> "Prince" was said to be superior to the Rock GODs, well...

It's like me clamoring that my macro Coors Banquet is superior to Pablito's Pink Turtle Crème Lager or whatever metro micro crap that quite possibly is better than Coors to the trained palate.

Prince > The Rolling Stones?

The hell you say.
