I miss it too, but what's gone is gone . It hurts sometimes to realize that not everyone had it as good as my family did . The rise of the White Middle Class in the 50's and 60's had me thinking that things would keep getting better . It hurts to know my children won't have it as good as I did . I remember going to strkelines in Detroit with my father as an elementary student . I remember eating powdered eggs as part of the food the Union provided members to help us through the strike . Dad did some side labor pouring sidewalks to keep us from being evicted . @@MelissaR784

God Bless Garrison Keillor. He has been an inspiration to me since the early 1980's. Such a great part of our American story.

@@jenmorricone4014 Interesting so I went to Wikipedia and looked at what is stated about that. He considers himself to be high-functioning autistic. I can get that; many of us who've lived through the time as he has have come upon some personal characteristics that weren't noticed when we were young that would fit current day diagnoses of some kind. We might have gotten some strange glances but soldiered through to find where we were productive citizens. He lives and performs from his "small world" in a flux with the larger one.

Listening in the dark to that wonderful voice, telling stories whose destination you cannot predict. So you have to pay attention and visualize the characters and the events. I grew up on radio, and have been blessed with the discovery of Garrison Keillor’s magic. This Ode to New York is outstanding. It sines in the dark. Thank you, mille fois.

The South was and still are the Democrats. I still enjoyed/enjoy A Prairie Home Companion even if Garrison's politics and mine are in disagreement. It was proven that he was irreplaceable as the host. Do not misunderstand me, the Republicans are no better. All politicians are the same just some are more transparent with their hatred for the United States.
