The man who put "wet" in "sweat"


I listened to a lot of James Brown as I ran various errands today.
I had the day off, but we worked some around the house. We cleaned out a garage and I made a run to the local Goodwill store to make some donations.
The "Godfather of Soul" provided the soundtrack to my day.
I have always felt a special affinity for JB.
He was born on May 3, 1933... I was born on May 3, 1966... uncanny, isn't it?
Plus, his classic "I Got You (I Feel Good)" has long been an official theme song for my favorite baseball team, the San Francisco Giants.
Today I grooved along to "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" and "Cold Sweat" and "Night Train" while keeping myself busy. It was great.
