I would love to retire to a place like Mayberry! I would just love to retire! But then, I guess I have bunches and bunches of years left before I can do that. My father in law just retired about 2 years ago, and my dad hasn't retired yet, altho he could if he wanted to. So I have many years

Well, of course, Ernest T.'s "Old Aunt Mariah" song was wonderful, and so was Otis' "Mother" song. But Otis really brought tears to my eyes during the song "Go Tell Aunt Rhody" when he cried about the old grey goose dying. I don't know if that counts as a full performance since he was too broke
