There are not many people like him. One of the things he said that has stuck with me is that this book of poetry is something that he has been wanting to write since he was a ten-year-old boy. And many of the poems have that vulgar charming perspective of a boy with an experienced man's confidence in expressing it. There was this young man behind me squirming at some of the lines as Garrison Keillor recited them from his memory, especially the one about sperm and ovum. Feels awkward just writing those words!Ruth Schowalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03106140875246572230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733812559283418635.post-86129829983968195632013-10-30T22:18:38.576-04:002013-10-30T22:18:38.576-04:00Honestly I had never heard of A Prairie Home Compa...Honestly I had never heard of A Prairie Home Companion until I heard of it through my youngest son. He loves the show and listens to it when ever he can. A couple of years ago we bought him tickets to go to the theater to see it on film..not the same as what you experienced but he loved it...It sound like old fashioned entertainment...Your night sounded wonderful. Glad you were able to go.Darlene Sperberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10842207296309478132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733812559283418635.post-41026368725693936112013-10-30T21:16:51.678-04:002013-10-30T21:16:51.678-04:00I wish you and your family could have been there t...I wish you and your family could have been there too!
