This edition is quick and simple. Though we wish we could share much more from the huge amount that keeps coming in daily, we've let you in on why that isn't to be anymore -- until we have time to relocate to a new site. Y'see, Google bought this platform and then proceeded to wreck it. The old publishing tools we used to have here were wonderful. They allowed us to present an e-zine, chockfull of news, reviews, live events, and other goodness. But that's not what you've seen lately. The new format Google imposed allows for very limited content. If we try to bring you more, then things just freeze, lock-up, and stop us from publishing anything -- including what the platform already accepted and saved for that edition. It's designed to make us stop trying, so we will -- except for short editions like this one. That is, until we pick up and move elsewhere, which we will (after 13 years here) be doing, as soon as we have time to do that. 

Meanwhile, check this old site often for fresh short editions, like this one!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY from one born on this date

Tune In Alert: Tim Atwood To Appear On Larry's Country Diner

'Larry's Country Diner' Airs  • Thursday, October 15 at 5 pm Pacific, 8 Eastern  and  • Saturday, October 17 at 8 pm Pacific, 11 Eastern  on RFD TV

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Country music entertainer Tim Atwood, a 38-year Grand Ole Opry veteran, will appear on the hit television show "Larry's Country Diner" airing Thursday, October 15 and then again on Saturday, October 17. Viewers will see live performances of “Come On If You’re Comin’,” “Saved By Grace,” “You First” and “One Pair Of Hands” which are all included on his upcoming album ‘Who I Am,’ available on November 20. Fans will not want to miss this special airing of Larry’s Country Diner and one-of-a-kind upcoming album release.

Never one to sit still for long, Atwood has been in the studio wrapping up his fourth studio album 'Who I Am,' which showcases Atwood’s versatility as a writer and a performer as he takes his fans on a musical journey that includes his self penned, country shuffle “Migraine Heartache” as well as Delbert McClinton’s soulful anthem “Sending Me Angels.” Atwood has never been an artist who readily fits into any one box. Instead, he relishes his love of playing outside of the box.

“I think ‘Who I Am’ is the best work I’ve ever done. I am proud of this project and proud to debut four of the album’s fifteen songs on Larry’s Country Diner. Not only is it an honor to perform on a show that continues to promote and support our music, but Larry Black, along with his cast and crew, have created an environment of family and fun. When you visit the diner, you feel like you’re coming home. I absolutely love that,” shares Atwood.

During his thirty-eight years on the Grand Ole Opry stage, Tim performed alongside nearly four decades of country music hitmakers including Loretta Lynn, George Jones, Marty Robbins, Jeannie Seely, Dolly Parton, The Oak Ridge Boys, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, Vince Gill, Carrie Underwood, and Taylor Swift.
