You know, I am stunned. This is a serious part of current Americana and your readers don’t get it. This is 2007 version of Norman Rockwell and no one is buying? I think people are checking the polls to see what polls they should respond to…com’n, grow some backbone and vote your heart.
Peace.
One question: Ed, which one is your favorite?
I like dick cheese.
It’s just an honor to be nominated. I gotta throw props to Mr. Jonathan Coulton, however. My version is a actually a cover of his cover of Sir Mixalot. Therefore, when you vote for me, you’re actually voting for him. He’s a genious. Please check out his music at http://www.jonathancoulton.com.
Thank you for nominating me =]
Thats a fan favorite!
