Lyrics Stir Thoughts Of A Gentle Giant

Chris gave me Bruce Springsteen & The E. Street Band newest CD, "Magic", for Christmas. I finally got around to listen to all the songs on the CD and as usual, they are all good. Since I considered Bruce Springsteen to be one of the better songwriters out there I like to really listen to his words and try to figure out what he is writing about. The last song on the CD, titled "Terry's Song", is obviously very personal in nature to Bruce as he sings about the recent death of a long time friend. While listening to this song, I couldn't help but think about my good friend, Mike Ford, who passed away back in 2002 after a long battle against leukemia. For those of you who knew Mike, I'm sure you will agree.

Here is the song.

Good reason why I shouldn't read this stuff at work...sniff!

And I have to admit that I randomly gave my dog a "happy helmet" the other day. Have no idea why I did it...it just happened. Thanks Mike. I miss you!
