Today was Woody Guthrie was born back in 1912. Guthrie to me was one of the greatest citizens this world has ever known.

May you rest in peace Woody.

I hope Bruce Springsteen plays a Woody Guthrie song tonight at the Air Canada Centre to celebrate Woody.

i find it interesting...wishing someone a happy birthday that is no longer here on earth. i mean, i've definitely done it for jerry, but it just seems a little odd that we do it. maybe it's just me.

i don't know that much about his life (woody). what did he mean to you? i mean why was/is he so important to you as a citizen? (curious about that choice of word)

:)
