KLEM FM

7-2-78
Below towering Clark Peak I paused on bridge crossing a swollen melt creek. As I leaned on the rail watching the the water rush swiftly away, I could see in it my life's past moments like a rushing river passing through me and vanishing never to be relived. At that moment I turned about to face the oncoming deluge of foamy water. Here was the future! It was the part of the river flowing from who knows where. I knew I couldn't really get to its source but would have to wait for each wave to pass through and then it would swirl off to someplace just as illusive.

I read that Stevie Nicks was inspired by mountains to write her song. I asked myself whether I had ever been inspired by mountains and it turns out that I was a very long time ago.

Good writing Chick.

This guy claims Bruce Springsteen sped up to 45rpm he sounds EXACTLY like Stevie Nicks...

I don't think that's true

It's not too late, Stevie. I'm still here. I'm still waiting. Sure, there's a little issue with the weight problem, but I can work around it. I promise.
