The eclectic playlist of melodies that I am drawn to in inspiration to learn, and play, has just been enriched by one melody from my childhood that concurrently found its place into the collective consciousness of generations, rightly seeking that bittersweet space where happiness lives.

Future Earth after an alien invasion, and eventually Tom Cruise's character is left to pick up a good many of the broken pieces. Sounds solid enough for a decent film.

I don't have any family letters from the Civil War, I’m just guessing that’s because most of my relatives on my fathers side could not read or write. On my mom’s side they wrote and spoke Italian so there are no letters about the CSA there. But I did find one rare audio sent back to my family in the late 1870’s. It proves that we had at least three soldiers in my ancestry.
