Johnny Cash

I have been a Johnny Cash fan for over sixty years. Here's a terrific essay about his music and evangelism. One of the reasons I don't like modern music is that they pump us the accompaniment track so loud you can understand the vocals. Listen to Johnny Cash and you can understand every word the first time you hear it.

Who knew that Billy Graham performed on one of Johnny's albums.  Here are Johnny and Billy at the Grand Old Opry in Tennesee.

Google held their regular Friday employee meeting after the election. Breitbart got a copy of the video and posted it here.

He wants congress to do its job. Watch the video.
