Comfort Zone

I'm a bit nervous this morning. Have to give a presentation in front of some leaders in my organisation. I'm always amazed by the ease with which some folk can talk or sing or play in front of a crowd as I'm more of a mumbler than an orator. Big thanks to (L-R) Rusty Miller, Peter Howe and Jim Stevens for their beautiful tunes a few weeks back. Yep Rusty was the tall dude on the cover and also heading out in an early shot in Morning of the Earth and Peter played on the soundtrack. I should have asked for some tips on presenting from these pro's.
So I'm off to get out of my comfort zone. (It's the same nervous feeling when I go surfing in bigger/wilder waves than I'm used to - except I don't expect blood if I wipe out badly today!)

Aquarian Blues

Continuing yesterday's hororsope theme - another fellow Aquarian was Blind Willie Johnson, who sang wonderful gospel tinged blues on classics such as "Nobody's Fault but Mine" (think Led Zeppelin), "Motherless Children" (think Clapton), "In My Time of Dying" (think Dylan), "Soul of a Man" (think Bruce Cockburn) and "Dark Was the Night and Cold Was the Ground".

Blind Willie's classic tune "John the Revelator" is currently aboard the Voyager 1 space probe hurtling towards whatever is out their beyond the solar system. Rock on Willie.
