Amen! Thank you for your service to this country my friend.

[@bluelipbeaver]

@@jimmy5391Thank you! God was good to me and watched over me. Too many close calls being a Marine in a weapons squad. Luck? Skill? God? Not sure why 58,000 died and I made it home. My nerves are shot, and enough survivor guilt for 10 people. But here it is, Christmas 2019. I am blessed to have a nice home in NH and one here in South Florida. Just gonna chill with my big cat '"Blue." She was a stray who needed immediate medical care. I saved her and she saved me. Funny how that worked out. Like I said, God watches over me.

[@jimmy5391]

bluelipbeaver he sure does watch over us and I think it was a mix of all. You lived a wonderful life in place for those who lost theirs. I’m sure they would all be proud of that. My great uncle was a marine Lt. Col in Korea and Vietnam, 1st Tank Battalion bronze star recipient and one of my good friends just signed up and is shipping to basic soon. I would follow your steps but I’m a diabetic, god has other plans for me.

[@bluelipbeaver]

@@jimmy5391 To show you how simple minded I am: seven years ago this month was the Sandy Hook school shootings. I was so jacked up. I was mad. i wanted to kill someone. A bad person. Just go and find one. They are easy to find here in Florida. I jumped on a plane and flew back to Boston. I put a battery in my 2010 250 cc Vespa GTV and on Saturday morning December at 5:30 A.M. I started a journey south. It was 5 degrees F. I did not stop until I reached Parris Island. I stayed there for two days and completed my trip to West Palm Beach on Christmas Day. It helped get my head right. But I still cry for those kids. It hurt me really bad.

[@jimmy5391]

bluelipbeaver on a Vespa!? That’s crazy! Sounds like the perfect way to calm down though. What a tragedy, I was too young I think I was 11 so I don’t have much memories of the shooting. But I always thought if one were to happen at my school I wouldn’t mind trying to stop it. If others are going down, I might as well go down with them trying to stop it. But thankfully I’ve never been in a tense situation like that, besides seeing my brother bleeding out on the kitchen floor from being stabbed when I was 9 or 10, but I had a wicked feeling he was gonna be okay. And he is still here today.

Today is 3/18/2020. I am a Black American woman & did not know there was so many Instrumental Black Females. Tonight, I also just stumbled on a video of Beverly "Guitar" Watkins.

God bless our Black Female Instrumentalists.

[@iandowney4630]

There are MANY Black women musicians, composers and producers, and Big Bands going back to the earliest days of recorded music. They got no money and no attention. Big Mama was ripped off by Elvis. Black music was covered by white artists all the time! I wish someone would put out a collection (several volumes!) called “The Black Originals Covered by White People”. Total rip off! You might want to check out Sister Rosetta Tharp and Memphis Minnie. Some fantastic music.

I'm seeing Caz Gerald and the other replies and thinking about what isn't Hendrixian about her. It's the bridge cover. She can't handle the bridge pieces and isn't picking at the end of her strings.

Gifted and talented black folk. No one like them. 👏 Bravo

WOW. Never heard of Barbara Lynn. She can play that guitar. White main stream Music producers made sure keep this great gem secret. She is better the Beach boys.
