A MOMENT OF NOSTALGIA IN THESE AWFUL TIMES

Some time around 1948 or 1949, when I was a teenager, I went to a Pete Seegar concert at Town Hall in New York City.  He played this song.

It was not a better time, but it was a time when it was possible to believe that things would get better.

The more I learn about dogs, the more I like cats. The more I learn about cats, however, well, the more I like them.
