This... this is for those of us who cannot speak. For those who's very presence we take for granted, even when they spend their lives along side us, sometimes giving them up in the name of loyalty... words cannot express my sorrow to learn that we as humans failed to recognize the efforts of our canine companions. The lives they saved... the friendships they formed... tossed away, never to be heard from again.

Please, if you listen to only one track from Feathers, let it be this one. Let them be honored as they should be now and should have been then. This is my humble attempt to bring them that honor, a final salute without words to our brave allies who cannot speak.

I will be performing at Furfright, where we will be raising funds for the United States War Dogs Association ( http://www.uswardogs.org/ ) . It is a noble and worthy cause, and I will be donating 5 dollars from every CD I sell to them between now and the end of the convention. Please help spread the word.

Rest in peace, War Dogs. You deserved better than us. *bows his head*
