Happy Anniversary, June
Johnny Cash, recorded on 6/32/03 just weeks after the death of June on May 15th. John passed on September 12th 2003, his heart broken, his voice and body weak. This performance was at a Carter family event and one of the last he ever gave.
This is a new song by Heidi Newfield called ‘Johhny and June’.
Oh there’s something ’bout a man in black,
Makes me want to buy a cadillac,
Throw the top back,
And roll down to Jackson town,
I wanna be there on the stage with you,
You and I could be the next rage too,
Hear the crowd roar,
Make ‘em want more,
Kick the footlights out,I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,I wanna hold you baby right or wrong,
Build a world around a country song,
Pray a sweet prayer,
Follow you there,
Down in history,I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,Like Johnny and June,
More than life itself,
No-one else,
This endless promise,
They don’t make love like that anymore,
Is that too much to be askin’ for,I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin’ with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
‘Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you’re gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,Like Johnny and June,
And when we’re gone,
There’ll be no tears to cry,
Only memories of our lives,
They’ll remember, remember,
A love like that.

“He didn’t miss a goddamned step.”
This gets me every time. I wish i had the video of his interview, but I can’t find it online. Maybe I’ll rip it from DVD at some point.
“I’m going down and this fireman is on the same step as me.
And he looked at me and I looked at him, and that look, he knew exactly where he was going and he didn’t miss a goddamned step – and I thought that was just magnificent.”

Obama, Biden and abortion
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26593948/
“I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at the moment of conception. But that is my judgment,” Biden said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “For me to impose that judgment on everyone else who is equally and maybe even more devout than I am seems to me is inappropriate in a pluralistic society.”
Meanwhile Obama says he was too flippant in answering that the decision as to determine when conception begins was ‘above my paygrade’:
“And so, all I meant to communicate was that I don’t presume to be able to answer these kinds of theological questions,” he said in an interview broadcast Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”
