This reminds of something I have been thinking of a lot. There is that plot element to "Futurama" where the robot "Bender" has a secret desire to sing folk music and I think about that a lot. For one thing, it reminds me that in my artificial and symbolic memory, I was into country and western music for a long time and I wonder if that means anything other than the obvious. I have been wondering if that is an inside joke among those of us that know about my work with Pink Floyd, The Doors, Duran Duran, Devo, Oingo Boingo, and all the others I have contributed to.
I also can't wait to see again my beautiful wife wearing my U.S. Navy officer's cover.
