Oh, I have a sound card just couldn’t get that video to play (I had played plenty of others today - even downloaded the Matt Lauer interview of Ann Coulter and listened to all nine minutes of it.Y’all never heard the song Shannon?? Y’all have computers without sound cards??
True story. It was written by Beach Boy Brian Wilson. He was in a deep state of depression in the 1960s and someone gave him a female Irish Setter and he named her Shannon.
Shannon became his best best friend and pulled him out of his long funk and depression. She got him out of the bed to play and have fun. He use to play with on the beaches in and around Malibu almost everyday.
One day Shannon was on some kind of raft, got caught by the tide or undertoe and was carried out to sea, while Brian watched helpless from the shore, he never saw her again. He never forgot the dog and wrote the song in the her honor.
And now you know the rest of the story.
I didn’t know about the song Shannon either but I have never been much of a music fan so that doesn’t surprise me
I do see it as a compliment though that Guy thinks of sharing something like this with us all - so ShannyK, just step back a minute and think “Guy really must like me to share this”, kind of like the little boy pulling your pony tail thing
edited to add: I was going to see if I could get the sound to play today and now the link won’t work!
