So I’ve been debating whether I should post something about Johnny Cash or not. To begin with, I didn’t know he died until about 1 when I was listening to the radio. I couldn’t believe it! I’ve listened to that guy since I was a little kid. See, my parents raised me on good old country music: Dolly Pardon, Kenny Rogers, Ricky Skaggs, Conway Twitty, George Jones, Holly Dunn, Charley Pride, Oak Ridge Boys, Alabama…
I digress.
I don’t really know what to write about him, so much. So I guess I’ll just put my favorite Johnny Cash lyrics that I remember, and I hope I get them kind of close. Here goes:
Know what, I think I’m going to butcher that little list. How about I stick with listing my top J.C. songs. Again, here goes:

1. A Boy Named Sue
2. Give My Love To Rose
3. Ring Of Fire
4. I Walk The Line
5. Highway Man
6. Tear Stained Letter
7. Poncho and Lefty
8. Folsom Prison Blues
9. Ghost Riders In The Sky
10. Man In Black

Probably this list does nothing for anyone, but these are songs I remember my
“folks” playing and singing when I was a wee lad. Maybe there are other songs I really like too, but I’ll just stick with these for now. See, I also like his cover of Closer even though I find it a bit odd.
Regardless of what style of music you like, you’ve got to hand it to Johnny, he has been one of the most influential singer/songwriters in history.

I guess I should make a Top Ten List for John Ritter, too. Here goes, my favorite John Ritter T.V. shows.

1. Three’s Company
2. 10 rules For Dating My Teenage Daughter
3. That magic show special that he hosted once
4. Wasn’t he in something else too?

Okay, so that didn’t go nearly as well as I was hoping. Turns out I don’t remember ten shows that Ritter was in. But his dad, Tex Ritter helped get Johnny Cash started! I shouldn’t make fun, especially if it’s going to be read by other people. Like, this isn’t one of those jokes that I can laugh to myself about and no is the wiser…Sorry.
