Message to Garcia
On NPR this morning VisQueen's Flotard (singer) tells the story of being with her father as he died of Cancer. She has named her new album "Message to Garcia" because her father used to tell her to go read "Message" whenever she had doubts about whether she could do something. You should be able to get the link on today's broadcast. I remember the context as being for us when we questioned why we should do something; we got to go to our room and read "Message to Garcia."

Yes, I remember that well. There is a film called the Generals, about the messenger, really, who said the story was a bit of an exaggeration. The Generals was a documentary film on two generals who fought against each other in Cuba back then.
