1. You know why Red Sovine was popular among truck drivers?

If you had dropped a fistful of whites so you could make delivery and now need to sleep, and there weren't any lot lizards at the truck stop, Red Sovine-induced depression works almost as well.

2. You are right -

I should have posted a warning.

Not responsible for kicked monitors, thrown smartphones, or sledgehammered jukeboxes!

somehow I just thought a story about a homeless kid and Santa might resonate in the lounge...

and for anyone who disputes Reds country cred -

"After a year of performing in West Virginia, Sovine moved to Shreveport, Louisiana, where the Bailes Brothers were performing on KWKH-AM. Sovine's own early morning show wasn't very popular, but he gained greater exposure performing on the famed KWKH radio program, Louisiana Hayride. One of his co-stars was Hank Williams, who steered Sovine toward a better time slot at WSFA in Montgomery, Alabama, and toward a contract with MGM Records in 1949. That same year, Sovine replaced Williams on Louisiana Hayride when Williams jumped to the Grand Ole Opry. Over the next four years he recorded 28 singles, mostly following in Williams' honky tonk footsteps, that didn't make much of a dent on the charts but did establish him as a solid performer.[1][2]"
