Ol' Hank

Hank Williams Sr. was a phenomenal man. His music set the stage for many artists who would soon followed. He sang with a twang that was unmistakeable and a heart that was all but shattered.

Hank was troubled for most of his life by severe back pain. Many attribute this to his alcoholism. It is rumored that Hank would drink Whiskey for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all in between. That's my kind of man.

So, here's to Hank. My back has been hurting for the past couple of years, on and off. I'm nowhere near the anguish of the country legend, but I've seen a glimpse.

To drinking whiskey, numbing pain, and forgetting women.
