Just want to let you know that this is not a superfluous email thread. A National New Yorker is needed for a video shoot that involves Jerry Douglas.
I'm happy to help out. Yesterday being Sunday, I was not easily available. I hope that this can be accomplished. |

All is well and the National is in good hands.
Glad to be of help, and to be able to give something back the steel guitar community. |

Mike, beauty is in the eye of the beerholder.
David, Jerry used it as a prop. He didn't play it. It's been a long time since I played it. I think I had it tuned to E demolished in equal detriment. |

Here's Jill sporting her new olive green Panama.
You will not meet nicer, more congenial people anywhere. It really was a pleasure for me to spend a little time with them and I'll remember this always.[This message was edited by HowardR on 19 May 2005 at 05:14 AM.] |

So were you able to convince Jerry that a signature hat made Minnie Pearl a country legend and you could do the same for him? Nice selection (and modeling job on your behalf of course) but Jerry seems more interested in your NY'er Really Howard, great pics and memory for 'ya! I'm jealous... |

Alternative Universe? Please explain.
Both Petticoat Junction and Green Acres were set in the rural town of Hooterville. The same characters appeared in both shows.
On Petticoat Junction the characters were portrayed as humble, caring, thoughtful, family and community loving down-to-earth folks.
The same characters on Green Acres were portrayed as simple-minded yokels who had pigs for children (Arnold).
This dichotomy has plagued me my whole life!!! Someone please explain and let me end my years of therapy!
