What better gift - birthday or otherwise- than Garrison?(G not J!) Gosh, wow, um-thank you, John. You do know how to woo! Will you love me when I'm old? Missed GK at the Kennedy Center years ago--my friend & coworker at a local newspaper, Mary brought you sweet corn. Would love to thank her too for introducing me to the humor, angst, great and I mean GREAT stories, kooky yet real characters, and yes the music-it's so eclectic and fun. Y'know, Mary and I would have rocked at the Harold Star. Mary Hampton, thank you. I think of you often - like just about every Saturday around 6:00.
