Woody Guthrie — This Land

Our next president here in the U.S. of A. in a little more than 12 hours will be a part-white/part-black kid whose mother is from Kansas and dad is from Kenya. He was born in Hawaii, became an adult in Chicago and will live with his beautiful wife and two children in the White House for at least the next four years. So, I think the most apt song for the occasion is Woody Guthrie’s “This Land.” Feel free to join in the chorus.

Bye George (for good this time)


The President and Mrs. President during an elegant-type moment.

In less than 24 hours George W. will no longer be president. Since I gave him a hard time practically the entire past three years EFD has been around, I thought I’d just sit back and give the blog a big smile in anticipation of no more Bush-Cheney.

The Folksmen – Blood on the Coals

There might as well be a little funny faux folk on Friday night. I’m not sure why I missed seeing the movie “A Mighty Wind” of which the Folksmen are a part but as far as parody goes, this is a pretty catchy tune.
