The late King Of Bluegrass, Jimmy Martin, once proclaimed, "You don't know what sad is 'til you listen to George Jones." It was meant as a compliment.
All the great blues guys have always maintained that you sing about your troubles to get rid of them. Me? I've got nothing to be sad about.
I've got my health and all of that stuff that they remind you of when you whine. I've got the best dog in the world. Well, she's not really very good by most standards but I love her like crazy. I do what I want. People are good to me. I live where I'll never starve or freeze.
Don't ever get good at sad. That's my advice today.
