I read your post this am, Bob, and thought things were going better for Dawg. Then, I got home this afternoon and got email about the sad news. I can't tell you how much Pineyfest meant to me and how much I appreciated the help from him. As you all know, Dawg would help any songwriter and give you nudges and pushes. I haven't known Dawg and Bobbie that long, but I've never felt more welcome at their house or here on the boards.

Ms. Bobbie, words can't express how much my heart goes out to you right now. You're in our thoughts and prayers.


"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek
