"I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.'"
I want to be remembered as my father was and pray that 250+ people show up at my funeral to show the numerous lives I touched through the years.
I am starting new....in a new place...leaving all the old behind far north...but a part of me wants to be north to see the snow...maybe because I don't have my stuff to surround me yet...I have my pups...

If anyone besides the Beatles pulled it off, it was Kurt.
You might appreciate Vonnegut's Blues for America, then...'the only proof he needed for the existence of God was music'...
Kurt did a good job pulling it off too....
How do you want to be remembered?
