Mr. Johnny Cash


I watched "Walk the Line" today in preparation for the Oscars. I like Johnny Cash. I've always liked Johnny Cash. I think it's because my Dad likes Johnny Cash and I can remember him listening to Johnny Cash when I was young. And I like my Dad.

Fact: Johnny Cash's agent lived down the street from my first home in London, Ontario.

Fact: Johnny Cash and June Carter got engaged on stage in London, Ontario (the movie only references Ontario).

Truthfully, I have an affinity for Johnny Cash. I think it's strange feeling connected to someone whom you've never met. My heart warms to Johnny when I hear his name, his music or even watch this depiction of his life. I'm cheering for him. I get upset when I see crude pictures of him on campus because I don't think he'd appreciate the circulation. I look forward to meeting him one day.

You gotta love a man of faith. Who's devoted to one woman. Who plays guitar.

More evidence that London, Ontario is the center of the world! Or is it the universe? Jokes, jokes. :)

I loved the movie! Thumbs up!
And Janette did you know Paul Haggis who won for Crash last night went to highschool in London, Ontario? and he gave props to his "grade twelve" (the sign of a Canadian... not twelfth grade) teacher!

It was an awesome movie...worthy of seeing in the theatre.
My mum saw Johnny play in North Sydney years ago, before he got cleaned up...she said it was quite something!
