God Bless you and your family and we'll keep checking this thread to see how long it takes #7 to make an appearance. You're the most incredible father I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. Tinkeroon and I send our love and best wishes.

Well, considering myself a music fan, but NOT country music, it had been a very long time (like since the late 80's) since I had really listened to country music other than the occasional cross over song. So to appease my dear sister, I listened to these 2 songs "Live Like You Were Dying" by (I think) Tim McGraw, and "Lucky Man" by Montgomery Gentry. Suddenly I realized country music is far different than I remember from the late 80's. SO, yeah, I'm hooked too. I still love OST genres, but I'm big on country at this point. All that to say, Yes I got that quote directly from George's new song, "I Saw God Today." That song really sums up how I'm feeling right now on this day. I would at this point post the lyrics to the song here ... BUT ... I'm on my iPhone and I cannot copy and paste with it.
