When did he record these songs?
Willie sounds way better here than he did on albums from around the same time like Born for Trouble or Clean Shirt. Were these older recordings that sat in the vault?
I’m sorry Janis but Willie made this song his
Young Catholic (25M) living in Temple TX and looking to get more involved with young adult Catholic groups in the Austin area. I'm already active in my local parish, but there aren't many people my age around. Any parishes, ministries, recurring events, or groups you'd recommend for meeting other young Catholics and building community?
Thanks!
Who do you think?
For those who met their spouse or serious partner in the Church, where did you actually meet them? Apps, parish groups, friends, volunteering, young adult events, somewhere else?
For local recommendations, I live in Temple TX.
I've been getting deeper into classic country music and keep finding bits and pieces of shows like Bobby Bare and Friends, Nashville Now, old CMA broadcasts, and various TV specials.
It got me wondering if anyone has ever put together a comprehensive archive, episode guide, or database for this stuff. I'm less interested in random clips and more interested in full episodes and organized collections.
As a younger fan, it feels like there's a huge amount of country music history out there that's difficult to find unless you already know where to look. Do collectors or longtime fans have a resource for this, or is everything still scattered across different sites and private collections?

25M, stable take home around $2.2k/week, no dependents, focused on long term sustainable wealth building. Most savings built since college are currently sitting in a former employer 401k (100% FXAIX), so I’m now rebuilding liquid reserves while optimizing next steps.
Current plan:
- Build 10k–12k HYSA first
- Aggressively fund current 401k (15% right now), which includes a 50% employer match up to the federal annual contribution limit
- Then decide between pushing 401k harder vs building taxable S&P 500 exposure (VOO)
- Systematically eliminate ~22k student loans and ~19k vehicle debt while continuing accumulation
Spending is disciplined, lifestyle creep is controlled, and goal is keeping things simple but aggressive.
Main question is whether this sequencing makes sense or if there are smarter ways to balance liquidity, debt payoff, tax advantages, and long term flexibility.
25M, confirmed Catholic but largely secular for years, now genuinely trying to return to the faith.
I’ve been attending Mass online recently, but I’m ready to start going back in person, make my first Confession in nearly a decade, and actually build real discipline instead of just going through the motions.
Why am I feeling this way? For those who’ve been through this or stayed consistent, what practical advice would you give someone trying to return seriously and sustainably?
