Kinky Friedman, known for his satirical and often provocative style, has passed away at 79. A post on his social media announced, “Kinky Friedman stepped on a rainbow at his beloved Echo Hill surrounded by family & friends.
Kinkster endured tremendous pain & unthinkable loss in recent years but he never lost his fighting spirit and quick wit.
Kinky will live on as his books are read and his songs are sung.”
Richard Samet “Kinky” Friedman earned a cult following for his unique take on country and Western music.
He released numerous albums, starting with “Sold American” in 1973, a record that laid the foundation for his career.
Known as the “governor of the heart of Texas,” he even toured with Bob Dylan during the “Rolling Thunder Revue” and made history as the “first full-blooded Jew” to perform at the Grand Ole Opry.
Apart from his musical endeavors, Friedman was a prolific writer. He wrote detective novels and contributed as a columnist for Texas Monthly.
He also ventured into politics, running for Governor of Texas in 2006 with the campaign slogan “My Governor is a Jewish Cowboy,” securing 12.6 percent of the votes among six candidates.
Born in Chicago and raised in Texas, Friedman studied psychology at the University of Texas at Austin.
His passion for music led him to form King Arthur & the Carrots and later Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys. He described the latter as a “country band with a social conscience, a demented love child of Lenny Bruce and Bob Wills.”
Reflecting on his life, Friedman once wrote, “Somewhere in heaven, I’m sure there’s a quiet corner with a big easy chair, a bright floor lamp, a big stack of biographical books, and a few old dogs wagging their tails to the faint smell of cigar smoke.”
Every morning the cat runs towards people and hopes that at least someone will like her
When a street animal approaches a person and begs for assistance or attention, very seldom does anyone respond.Everyone is rushing to get on with their own work and act as though no one is watching.And for pennies on the dollar, all of this results in the saving of a little life.
However, the boomerang law states that good efforts will undoubtedly be rewarded.This is the reason this cat was abandoned by his mother and kept apart from her at a young age.I wonder if these folks have no conscience at all or if they would ever experience regret?When the child realized he needed help organizing his life, he begged people to assist the cat, who had run towards people in the hopes that at least someone would adore him.Murzik raced to every bystander and sobbed pitifully, but nobody gave him any attention.

But fortune continued to favor him.He was approached by a nice woman who called the volunteers, who showed up at the address right away and took him to the vet.Her illness was gastrointestinal, but it was manageable.The infant was taken to a picture session when she had recovered, and it was discovered that she was naturally gifted as a model.The volunteers were confident that she was extremely photogenic, as many people showed a wish to hold her in their arms.
However, lichen was also discovered to have affected him, and as a result, the owners’ search was put on hold.However, they set up a picture shoot once again after that.The cat was older, extremely graceful, and had a glossy, fluffy coat.After gaining the moniker “Musya,” she quickly relocated to a new home.
