He said what? Here’s why:

After effects of the Toby Keith concert: Wrote this country music song while driving around in my humvee. Maybe later I’ll work out the guitar part and record.

<b><i>They’re making noise, we’re making history.</i></b>

I think he may have a career planned for retirement!
