While traveling in Australia, we never did learn just how the alcoholic drink known as "goon got its name.

We never did learn the who, what, or where about the country music heard on something called comet radio. It's one thing to hear Bobby Bare's song > "500 Miles in the USA, but you should try hearing it while listening to a radio in Kalgoorlie. That's more like 10,000 miles from home

Just imagine how emotional it would be to hear an Irish folk song in a Dublin pub!

We've mentioned in previous columns just how moving it was to hear the entire "At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash, while standing in a record store in Fremantle.

It's time for us to move on. Have a Paparazzi free week.

BP graduated from college in the mid sixties (at the bottom of the class?) He told his draft board that Vietnam could be won without his participation. He is still appologizing for that mistake. He received his fist photo lesson from a future (more...)
