Shawna Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Laurie, a couple of years ago I interviewed songwriter Billy Montana, who told me about how his oldest son got the lyrics to one of the songs he'd written tattooed on his shoulder. He said, "I mean, what are you gonna do, get aggravated that he put the words to your song on his arm? (laughs) Yeah, it’s hard to be ticked off about that." And then a couple of weeks ago I interviewed the son, Randy Montana, and he confirmed it, because he said it's his favorite song his dad ever wrote. Your story reminded me of that.

Lucky Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Finally finished the informational wedding website. I figured, since it's listed on the invitations that we already sent out I should actually get around to putting stuff on it. Nice website Ryan, good work. And I also love your pictures.

Shawna Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 My 17-year-old kid is taking a college course at the local community college - while he's still a senior in high school. He wants to study for the gaming certificate, and so he's taking the introductory course in the fall. He's pretty excited. And I'm about as proud as I've ever been of him. I hope he doesn't get too bored because it's just an introductory course, and that he keeps in mind it is all a step to better things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockyRaccoon Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Still buzzing from the My Morning Jacket show. If any of you ever get the chance to see them live, do it. Are they that good live? I've always wanted to see them since I love them so much but I saw them on Jimmy Fallon once and Jim James was kind of awkwardly spinning around in a cape the whole time.

TheLizard Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 They're that good live. It was the second best show I've ever seen (taking a spot previously held by CSN and Tom Petty. Yeah, that good.) And what looked like awkwardly spinning on television is incredibly badass in person. There was some cape spinning, but all-in-all he's a fantastic frontman. Completely captivating. Like Ronnie Van Zant on acid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
