41 years young! Happy birthday to...
If I Had A Hammer by Peter, Paul, and Mary was released this week in 1962.

We are going to see them this weekend. They are more relevant today than they have been for a long time.

We need more like PPM.

1. I'll always love "Puff, The Magic Dragon."
Hidden drug references? Don't care! It was a terrific song to sing when I was a kid.

2. That song makes my eyes tear up
almost every time I hear it. Especially now that I have two young boys.

And I always did wonder what in the hell "ceiling wax" was when I was younger. Then I realized it was "sealing wax" - the kind used on fancy envelopes.

Major D'oh!:silly:

3. I used "Blowin' In the Wind"
over 1963 footage of the Berlin Wall in my play last year. Very powerful

4. Even after all these years, their songs still ring true
to me anyway.

Just call me an old hippie at heart, I guess.

Wow... PPM and the Dead in the same month. I might get palpatations or something.
