Social decline began about the time burning leaves in the fall was outlawed. A tiny step in the process of control. The era when milk and soda came in a glass bottles. Return for deposit. Why did we stop doing that? The decline continued exponentially and now we live surrounded by a lot of what we think we need, but also a lot of stuff that got forced on us by politicians and ruthless capitalists. The gleaming decay is hanging from our belts, parked in our garages, clogging our arteries and bought on credit. It's cutting off oxygen to our brains. We are stumbling and the future is questionable.

My teenage years were spent watching the evening news body bag count and hoping my draft lottery number would be in the high 200s. I was lucky to get out of that Vietnam thing. Yep, luck is a big influence on war, right up there with God many say. God is on our side seems, well just not how God would want to be referenced concerning war. There's confusion in many ways when it comes to fighting a war. Call it what you may, but convincing people to kill requires various levels of propaganda.

War is life or death. War energizes and destroys thought. War is the last resort.

Today's show brought you musical war stories and conversations of current events.To all Veterans we thank you for your service. A special thanks to guest DJ Doc Martin.

The hot trak for Veterans Day is Whoa Sailor by Hank Thompson.

6/6/2007 All business and theater announcements, "Return to your seats, the performance is about to begin. Thank you." The lights dimmed and Neil Young hunkered over his guitar and played a hour long acoustic anthem. After a short break lurching dancer NY big hands on the strings, echoed reverbed electric sound magic, not even hitting the strings. One of many highlites of my week. Thanks Uncle Jeff.

R.I.P. Hank Thompson 9/3/1925 - 11/6/2007
