Very, very nice and hallowed ground indeed.  One of my favorite songs is
"The Home of Rock and Roll, Cleveland, Mississippi".  At least that's the
lead.  I really want to make that trip - a friend did it a couple of years
ago.  He got to drive across Parchman Farm prison.  The guard gave him
directions, but about halfway he came to a fork in the dirt road.  I told
him that he should have spun a pint whiskey bottle to see which way to go.
I'm heartened to see Po Monkeys.  I know most of the jukes are abandoned
because of the casinos.
