Oggy Sue

Got word of an impending 25th high school reunion...which means I'm in danger of reenacting the exact scenario from Peggy Sue Got Married...where Kathleen Turner goes to her 25th high school reunion in 1986 and goes back in time to 1961 and tries to change her own history but learns nothing can change without changing everything.
Then I wonder how many of my classmates would go to the reunion if it was held in El Paso.

Production Value

Composition
I am limping and my arthritic toes bleed at the end of the day but watching "Once Upon A Time in The West" makes all the pain go away. Because that once upon a time is here again with different shades of orange, dust storms, straw hats, grim quests of vengeance, redemption and suede jackets. Villains ride over the same dirt to meet their fate. I'm part of the determined bulging of humanity, straining toward paradise, the final station called home, twin steel rails leading home. I don't feel heroic but in 50 years I hope someone will make my life appear heroic.

The Statler Brothers do a good performance. If you want to hear the lyrics and maybe save your soul before judgement day.
