Johnny and Shel

[trochee]

i had no idea that "A Boy Named Sue", that Johnny Cash classic, was written by Shel Silverstein, of all people. And they share a Grammy for it!

An icon of my young adulthood (Cash) just met up with an icon of my childhood (Silverstein). Silverstein has apparently co-written with David Mamet, too!

Thanks to "American Routes."

It's on Saturdays here and I was ready to hear the whole thing again.
