FINALLY, DAS PACHELBEL I CAN TOLERATE
Long ago my oldest son was taking piano lessons. I was delighted. I am a piano tuner, and it was a great boost to my self-esteem for one of my sons to be playing the piano.
All went well for some time. We finally got to Santa Lucia, and that was real music. What progress. And then the music teacher assigned my son to play Canon in D by Pachelbel. It should be called Canon in Duh? What Gothic magnificent boredom.
I thought my son was stuck on a tough part and playing it over and over to master it. So, I asked him to go ahead and try to play the whole song and come back to the tough part later. "But Dad, that is the whole song."
I told him no composer should take credit for such a mess-- such vain repetition. Then my son told me, "But Dad, Pachelbel was Johann Sabastian Bach's piano teacher. I told him the it was a good thing Pachelbel died so Bach had to learn to play real music.
Thus, I give you some real entertainment based on Pachelbel's Canon in D.

SAD SONG FROM ALBERTA, CANADA
Cowboy songs are all too often sad. Life is going great, and then one day tragedy strikes out of the blue. That is the way it was before we had our nanny government killing us slowly by poisoning us with city water, deadly food additives, and Big Pharma drugs.
I just got a phone call this morning from CVS drug store trying to convince me to get my flu shot-- you know, the one that the CDC has actually said does not work this year-- the one that is laced with mercury as a preservative.
I would rather take my chances on the mercy of my God and the wide open places of Texas.
