A man named Stan sent us the following email from the country music capital of the world 芒鈧 Nashville:
The biggest part of our history here in Nashville is the music: country, jazz, gospel, you name it. If it wasn芒鈧劉t born here, you can be pretty sure it at least stopped and stayed for a spell.Now I hear this Habeas you芒鈧劉re looking for is a good-hearted, America-loving man (or a person, or a fella, anyhow you follow my meaning). So I bet it won芒鈧劉t surprise you any that this red-blooded green fella stopped his running just long enough to take in a little history at the Country Music Hall of Fame right here in Nashville.I芒鈧劉ve worked here for the last 15 years, helping to keep the place looking nice for all the folks who come through. This morning, I was polishing the cases in our new Ray Charles exhibit, when I saw your bitty green friend wandering the hallways. I don芒鈧劉t expect he was looking for anything in particular 芒鈧 just admiring the beauty of the place and soaking up some musicological history. Of course, I芒鈧劉m not supposed to just let people wander around like that 芒鈧 we don芒鈧劉t rightly open til 10:00 a.m.. But the little man just looked so worn down, like he芒鈧劉d been running all his life.This here is the place I go myself when I feel down. I figured who was I to keep someone as important as Habeas Corpus himself from doing the same? Don芒鈧劉t know if any of these messages get to him eventually, but you tell him to come back and see us any time.-- StanP.S. I even started a country song about him 芒鈧 with a bit about how 芒鈧搕he laws we abide have a purpose芒鈧 and 芒鈧揗r. Gonzales the sourpuss,芒鈧 but I芒鈧劉m still working on those rhymes. There are more half-written songs around here than there are screenplays out in Hollywood, and I don芒鈧劉t wanna just add to the pile!
