Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

I love Blues.

I'm sure the Ooooobama and his Fish-eyed Fool of a wife would say, "Don't tell me words don't matter" or "This isn't helping my children you know!"
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I am going to change my name to Essie Pearl Dupree. :-)

*I was doing some genealogy today and lo and behold, I have an "Essie Pearl _____" in my family tree. Born in the sticks of MS too. Go figure :-)

My favorite version of "Stagger Lee" is by Mississippi John Hurt. And if I can get my camera goin' I'll post a video of me playin' it!

Haven't seen the movie, yet.

I have a couple of songs from the soundrack on my iPod.

As a harmonica player, it's my JOB to love Mississippi Delta Blues.

We drove down Highway 61 on our way to New Orleans after college. It was like going to Mecca for me.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
--St. Theresa of Avila
