........I was disappointed that there was so little about him on the country music special that ETV did. I think they shortchanged him and hank, jr.!!!............ ..................
Re: Hank Williams Sr.
I agree, he doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Some have called him the father of rock-n-roll. Imo, if not the father, at least the grandfather.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
Hank Williams was born with a condition called spina bifida, which caused lifelong pain. That combined with a very troubled marriage probably led to alcoholism. Then he injured his back when he fell while hunting, which required surgery. After which he became addicted to a pain killer called chloral hydrate, prescribed by a quack fake doctor (who paid $25 for a degree in medicine). The night of his death he became severely ill during the trip to his next performance, scheduled for New Years Day 1953 in Canton, Ohio. The December weather was too poor to fly so he hired someone to drive him in his Cadillac. During the drive Hank became ill (probably as a result of the combination of alcohol and pain medicine).
The driver stopped in Knoxville and found a doctor, who injected Williams with a mixture of vitamin B12 and morphine.
With Williams in the back seat of his Cadillac, the driver eventually stopped for gas at a station in West Virginia. Hank Williams was dead in the back seat. He was 29 years old.
Ironically his death was just a few weeks after the November release of Hank’s I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive which was a hit at the time of his death.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
Joe, “it” needs to look like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19vApPwWqh8. You get the YouTube brackets from the header above the dialog box, right up there ^^^. Just click on that box where it says YouTube, which puts those brackets into your dialog box, like this [youtube][/youtube]. Then in between the ] and [ in the middle, you paste the link you copied from YouTube. Then you modify what you pasted. You had it right, but you didn’t get that [youtube][/youtube] from the box up there.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
I tried the youtube thing and the blinking curser in the middle but the Paste goes to the right.
I think I'll just do it as I did before. It seemed to work.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
It does that to me sometimes too. That’s why the Good Lord gave us a backspace button on our keyboards! Just put your cursor to the right of the “YouTube thing” and backspace it out until you get to the middle (you’ll erase all the [/youtube] on the right. Now paste in your copied link. Then with your cursor to the right of the pasted link, go back to the top and click on the YouTube box again. Now you’ll have [youtube][/youtube] to the right of your pasted link. Put our cursor in the middle between the ][ and backspace all the way back to the last character in your pasted link. Now you have this (hit the quote button on this post and you’ll be able to see what it looks like).FRJ wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 3:13 am I tried the youtube thing and the blinking curser in the middle but the Paste goes to the right.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
Well, that's the thing with me and these incredibly frustrating chicken traps. I can scarcely manage the minimum of tasks
and am at a loss when insubordination creeps in to the computers attitude canal.

Re: Hank Williams Sr.
Ken, I forgot my manners. Thank you for the help you provided.
In this arena I feel like I am using Brail, which again, I know nothing about.
Oh, for a backspace button in other aspects of my life!

Thank you redrider.
