I don't even know what to say.

How many fucking times will it take

That's a question that people have been asking for a long time.

Below is a video of a legendary Michigan newsman, Bill Bonds. His bit at the end is poignant.

I liked Bill Bonds.

I kinda love him now. Thanks for sharing this one. Really, Really great stuff.

This Fred Rogera moment is pretty amazing too. Worth watching these days. He also mentions Lennon and others.

I have a song on the first New Green album titled, "Impeccable Woman," that has a lyric inspired by Bill Bonds: Im a retired anchor man, selling furniture tied to balloons and you're a sunrise come too soon.

Bonds was the best.
