This song might sound familiar to anyone that’s visited a Proctologist or Gastroenterologist lately.

We've been fortunate to experience a lot of great music in our lifetime. Here's some of that music updated as the performers grow older too.

When I was a child, I thought “Nap Time” was a punishment. Now, as a grownup, it feels like a small holiday.

For all of you who fondly remember the music of our youth, one of the most iconic songs of our era was "American Pie" by Don Mclean. 

It's full of symbols of the world we lived in. This video is a collage of the stories behind the song.

ENJOY!

Very interesting Greg, great story.

Great post Greg.  As you suggest, McLean's "American Pie" was iconic, perhaps an anthem of the day.  And the video has a lot of very interesting interpretations of his lyrics that provided me with new insights. The Stones, JFK, Dylan.  Of course, lyrics are open to interpretation by anyone and it is possible that someone else has a quite different interpretation.  It is also interesting that even without diving deeply into the lyrics, "American Pie" has a strong connection to the time and achieved great recognition by many.  Lots of ways and levels to connect to music.

Also a belated comment about your earlier posting of the Tim Hawkins video.  Hawkins does a great job of recreating a number of iconic guitar riffs that most of us immediately recognize.  It is really fun the way that he wraps them with humor.  good stuff.

Thanks Greg,  I knew the song was about Buddy Holly's death, but no idea about all the rest of the different referrals to the 60's.  Really nice piece   Thanks,

I couldn't watch this without being profoundly moved. 

LEST WE FORGET!

Thanks Greg, like many of us I was glued to the TV for hours not believing what I was seeing.  I worked in NYC for many years and I was extremely disturbed watching this story progress.  So again thank you, one of the best  remembrances I have seen   We must always know there are people in the world that hate America and stay prepared to defend ourselves.     LEST WE FORGET

I heard someone say this is our generation's "Pearl Harbor". Like Pearl Harbor our lives were changed in ways we could never have imagined.

We are still battling the COVID-19 and the next thing is here already. Virologists have identified a new Nile virus - type C. It appears to target those who were born between 1930 & 1970.
The symptoms include:
1. To send the same message twice.
2. To send a blank message.
3. To send a message to the wrong person.
4. To send it back to the person who sent it to you.
5. To forget to attach the attachment.
6. To hit SEND before you've finished.
7. To hit DELETE instead of SEND.
8. To SEND when you should DELETE.
It is called the C-NILE virus! And if you cannot admit to doing the above, you have obviously caught the mutated strain: the D-NILE virus.

Thanks for the posts Greg.  A touching 9/11 remembrance.  So many of those images are burned into our memory.  Then your latest post helps us laugh a bit at our geezer situation.  Keep up the good work.
