Blog Entry 76 of 82 Baseball,football,the Grateful Dead,Jesus and me
Could be politics, religion, music, sports, family life or anything in-between and outside the lines. (I refuse to say "outside the box," even if my chosen line means exactly the same thing) Chronologically, I'm 40. The consensus among those who know me best puts me somewhere between 10 and 13 in terms of maturity. I love listening to Jimmy Buffett, the Grateful Dead, the Allman Brothers and all acts Country (except the Dixie Chicks who offended my long-held,closed-minded view of decent behavior) I have deep, strong beliefs in all things I believe in and sometimes in things I don't. I pride myself in my contradictory nature even though it is a sign of weakness to change one's mind. I have been known to waver more than John Kerry talking about national defense, though I remain steadfast in my beliefs. I am prepared to argue to the death on one issue and one issue alone; Dickey Betts should be allowed back in the Allman Brothers. On this, there is no compromise. I believe in compromise in all other areas so long as the compromise includes everything that I want or believe in. In all seriousness, I am a lucky man, blessed with a wonderful family and an uncanny ability to not care about anything if the situation requires such. I believe that minds are like parachutes in that they have been known to fail their user, albeit with a slightly lower fatality rate. So that's me, or at least that's kind of me. I mean, I felt that way right before I didn't.

Have I told you lately. . .?
Contributed by: Bill Prather   on 6/22/2008

Bear with me . . . This is for Jenny . . .

Jenny,

Have I told you lately that I love you?

Maybe I haven't. I'm sure I haven't said it enough.


You fill my life with laughter, you can make it better.
Ease my troubles, that's what you do.



It was beautiful, May 17th, 1998, when I danced with you. Van Morrison, "Into the Mystic," THAT WAS OUR SONG. It's our song. We danced our first dance as husband and wife. What a day.

Remember the Morrison Inn that night. I was so happy! I stood on the table and told everybody at the restaurant that you had just married me.

I couldn't believe it then and I still can't believe it now. What are you doing with with me?

Jennifer , you could do so much better , I guess I'm a lucky guy.

I don't know what else to say,

You take away my sadness,
Ease my troubles,
that's what you do.

Have I told you lately that I love you?

Jenny, I never knew love until I knew you.

I never saw a sunrise until I knew you.

Have I told you lately that I love you?

You fill my heart with gladness
and you take away my sadness,
That's what you do.

Have I told you lately that I love you?

I do.

Jenny, you're the reason I do what I do.

I love you. There's no one above you.

We'll always have each other.

Have I told you lately that I love you?
