The flags in augusta are being flown at half staff. But don’t get confused. This is not in memory of President Ford. This is in memory of the Godfather of Soul. The Hardest Working Man in Show Business. King of Augusta. Days before his death he gave away toys to children in downtown augusta. I wish I could go to his funeral on saturday – but I’m going to be in the ATL for the Peach Bowl. I guess the flags will have to be at half mast for President Ford next week.
This is the memorial at his statute in downtown Augusta –
Here is James with Coach Dooley – this looks like a recent picture –
Damn he could dance –
the thin line between optimism and delusion... 
I love the video…just makes me want to break out into dance!
Here’s to a great legend 🙂
Um, Charlsie, you left out SO much information about your involvement in James Brown’s wake. And the pictures of us at the statue on Friday night. I guess my blog later this week will have to fill in the blanks.
