    George: You know, this used to be a helluva good country. I can't understand what's gone wrong with it.
    Billy: Huh. Man, everybody got chicken, that's what happened, man. Hey, we can't even get into like, uh, second-rate hotel, I mean, a second-rate motel. You dig? They think we're gonna cut their throat or something, man. They're scared, man.
    George: Oh, they're not scared of you. They're scared of what you represent to 'em.
    Billy: Hey man. All we represent to them, man, is somebody needs a haircut.
    George: Oh no. What you represent to them is freedom.
    Billy: What the hell's wrong with freedom, man? That's what it's all about.
    George: Oh yeah, that's right, that's what it's all about, all right. But talkin' about it and bein' it - that's two different things.

    I'm befuddled. Imagine that. But what was the theme song from the American film 'Billy Jack'---I hear it but can't name it. My head is not awake yet?

    Very often in house music, you hear references to Jack. 'In the beginning there was Jack. And jack has a grove. The grove of all groves'. What's the origin of this? Was there a guy called Jack at the forefront of house music at its inception or is 'Jack' merely a personification of house music?
