True, true, true.  Great job on the song.  

Your beard in the zipper is a separate story.  Is there a video of that?

If you could bottle this soulfulness and sell it I'd buy me ten gallon and swim in it just to get the vibe to stick. Some awesomeness ingrained in here that's infectious once you get going. Humongous thumbs up.

Ha!  I somehow missed the zipper story!  It sounds like you escaped by a whisker.

Tragic story. Well done Andries.

Who you calling old, Shane?  

Thanks, Andries,   Go the her candy and a card and will likely take her out to her fave Mexican restaurant for fish tacos  

When the cold or flu is almost gone.....  cut a slice of onion about a cm (third of an inch) thick and put it on a buttered slice of bread.  Eat that baby and the cold will soon be gone.
