And do you want to know how old I am? I saw ZZ Top in San Antonia when they were just teenagers at a dump called "The Teen Canteen". This was before there were beards. They were just mediocre. Damn I'm old!
Thanks Castle, I kind of suspected that. The Shaker song was popular in 1848 and Copeland wasn't born until 1900.
If you like Appalachian folk music see the movie "The Songcatcher".

ZZ Top mediocre? NEVER. Damn you're old? Me too.

You old geezers are making me feel young. I'm 42. But already had a heart attack so I guess my ticker is old. I prefer hanging out with you guys anyway.

I have a pace maker. Only smokie one cig every other day now. But I can't seem to get into the ol' regular exercise routine which is what I REALLY need to do. I could also do better about the check-ups - but I HATE going in and having them charge me out the ass for a pulse check.

Thanks for asking.
