ok, so we sat and watched the cma music awards the night before last, mostly to amuse ourselves by trying to catch the 'artists' lip-synching....we are not the fans of country music that we have been in the past.....with few exceptions (like allison krauss) they look like republicans who happen to sing a bit and strum guitar whilst wearing torn or sequined clothing and cowboy hats.......we do like the dixie chicks, because they took a stand against the war......we also watch these award things because it is amusing to catch a glimpse of tracy montgomery, wife of the montgomery of montogomery gentry.....i used to work with her when she was the nurse at the children's home, and she used to eat at the restaurant regularly, and she does business at the bike shop.....the song they performed was quite lame.....and we went to bed because there was not much more other than the performer of the year award......won by this hatted guy kenny chesney....who appears to be basically bald under the hat, and sings songs eerily similar to jimmy buffet........ah well....isn't amusement the only game in town..........
