We have alotta good times here at this website.

Thanks for stopping by today. If you're new here, you might wanna hit the "Archive" button and see how much fun we have.

We have an awful lotta fun in Central Park. We sing Love songs, and funny songs, and socially conscious songs, and classic rock 'n roll, and country, and folk.

We laugh a lot. We smile a lot.

We sing together.

I feel so lucky to do what I do, with some of the most beautiful people on the planet... New Yorkers, and visitors from all over the place.

We really do have an awful lotta fun here at the website, too. (Check out the updates. All kindsa cool stuff!) And, this is gonna be a very special year as soon as we start the real Podcasting. (Keep checking back, okay?)

Over the years in Central Park, and down at Pier 45 in the Village, and Riverside Park and playing all over town, I have met the coolest people. Really good, good people.

Yeah, and we have fun.

This year will be no exception. But, this weekend marked something not-so-fun... and, it's important to pay attention, especially if you are a thinking, caring, feeling human being.

Here are a few more people I'd like you to meet.... kinda.

Kevin is 28 years old. . Marlon is 25. (Great smile!) . Tricia is 34. (Looks a little shy.)

. Steve is 39. . Ryan is 25. . Myla is only 24 years old. . Fern, 33. Matthew is 34.

Jason, I guess is the baby of this bunch. He's 20 years old.

No, you won't see them in Central Park this summer.

In fact... they will never celebrate another birthday

Y'see, they're all dead. Each of these shining people were recently killed in Iraq.

You might wanna think of their beautiful faces and their families the next tme you see a photo like this.

2,317 so far and more every day.

This weekend marks the 3rd year of this nightmare. Nearly 3 years since George W. Bush declared "Mission Accomplished".

Hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians have been killed or horribly, horribly wounded... many of them children.

I don't wanna get into the politics of it.

I really don't give a shit today.

If you have a heart and an ounce of courage, take a minute and see what 2,317 Americans killed looks like.

And...

.

...for what?

God forgive us all.
