We've Got You Covered
Never let it be said an inspiration cannot come from the most bizarre places. I ran an errand for a friend on the way home from work last night and stopped at a car lot that could have come straight out of the movie Deliverance. Old shack for an office, leather-skinned old man sitting on a rocker on the porch, two bloodhounds at his side and the kicker for the inspriation of a new quasi regular feature called Under Cover: his kid on a $40 Wal-Mart organ playing (or trying to play) The Beatles Yellow Submarine. The old man's name was Tucker; he said if his kid didn't pick up the tempo he was going without grits the next morning. I always was in favor of some discipline in raising kids. I didn't get the dogs' names, but I'll bet anyone 5 bucks one was named "Blue".

Nah, it actually was pretty neat; he was a nice old man with a kid that has NO future in music :D
