John Prine was a fantastic songwriter, who wrote such classics as "Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore." He would have been 74 today, but passed away from COVID earlier this year. His family/fans have been encouraging people to post about him on social media today, and I guess this counts as social media even if it doesn't "trend."
Anyway, I had an "Illegal Smile" moment earlier this year. It was shortly before my birthday and I got a card in the mail...automatically generated from my renters' insurance agency. So yes, I really have had that moment when "all my friends turn out to be insurance salesmen"!!
