Apart from the air quality and traffic, he enjoys life in Los Angeles, where he and his wife Julie have lived for the past 10 years. You have to love your car and like listening to music or the radio.

When asked if he listens to Peter, Paul and Mary, he is instantly dismissive. Their music was OK. Now it's strictly from hunger if you listen to it. It's kind of boring. Lipton, who has published four books and written for many magazines, including American Cinematographer , is still writing poems. But don't expect to hear them in any songs anytime soon.

And listen, if you see him around, you need not ask him about Puff, OK?

Weekly Weekly Podcast November 6, May we always appreciate and recognize them for their efforts as well as those who gave it all for a cause some never believed in. In those moments I knew he wanted the respect and recognition for something so few of us will ever understand. It took a certain kind of a man to persist because he knew innocent men would die if he didn't fly to save them.

He has a family at home with 4 children at that time and I'm sure those thoughts of losing a father did cross his mind. Just think of how many fathers were blessed that day to return home to raise their own children? All because of a man who wouldn't allow fear of being killed himself to alter the mission he was called to perform. Some never came home alive but for those who did for a "Silver Star" it was quite the price to pay for this mission on this day. Thank you Ron Jones for the missions you served and for the many who's lives were spared on that ugly day.

There is a silver lining to the story and if some magic were to happen, Puff the Majic Dragon did fly that day. Puff is the song that always calmed my older child down when she was upset, even as a baby. Searching for a video of the group singing the song, we found the video mentioned above, this quickly became a favorite.

All of us thought that the little boy in the song died, but apparently not. When they would sing "Puff" tears would fall across the room. One of the saddest songs i've ever heard. I felt so bad for Puff! The first time I visited Hanalei on Kauai, I tried to find out if that quaint oceanside village was connected to the song, but, alas, it is not. Nice little daydream fodder, though. Has anyone else tried to make that connection that you know of? I have always so loved this song. I think I'm just going to have to start singing it again. I'm always humming or singing as I go about my day this will make my day going about better!

Hello Flourish and thank you. I'm so glad you enjoyed this. It really was a very innocent little song. This was thoroughly entertaining and provided information that I had long ago wondered about. Glad you set the story straight about the innocent meaning behind the song, too. I loved all those songs by Peter, Paul and Mary including this one. Takes me back to the s when I hear songs like this. Will share. Thank you so much for reading this hub and writing such wonderful feedback. I just love the song too. I was also a big Captain K fan when I was a kid. I recall reading about the gunships in Nam being called after Puff And, the good news is that I have been one of your followers and avid readers for a long tine now Truly, without any doubt, My favorite song and hub.

I am not blowing smoke. No pun intended. On the iconic Capt. Kangaroo children's show , Magic Drawing Board had a routine that "he" drew with this song as his music. He drew Puff, Jackey, and all of the characters and like your hub brings to the front, a New kid showed up one day at Puff's cave and the entire process started all over again. The crowd, mostly moms and kids sang the song in total harmony without missing a lick.

I admit it. Tears fell from my eyes for "I" felt a lot of emotions at this time of my life having worked for 23 years with our local paper; wrote scripts for a community theater three friends and I formed to do shows to give monies to charities and was on the radio with a friend of mine.

I know that I am one of your followers.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. I'm glad you now know about Jackie Paper Your hub brought back memories of a time when things were different. All childhoods come to an end. In some ways, with some people, they hold on in some way or another. The folk song Puff The Magic Dragon became more meaningful to me by reading your hub. You explained things I never even realized. I also thought that the friend had died.

But it makes more sense that he simply grew up. Hello Mel, that road trip was one you needed to make for many reasons it seems. I's so glad you were able to get the LP before it disappeared.

Glad you enjoyed this! Curiously enough, on that same trip that took me through Colorado that I just wrote about, I absconded with my mother's Peter, Paul and Mary album, the first one that you mentioned. We played the groves off that record when we were kids, so I wanted to have it because she was getting ready to sell it.

That album has deep sentimental value for me. Great hub! I enjoyed reading this article and learning about the background of the song very much! Hello lambservant and thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed this. Puff is such a sweet song, isn't it? You wrote this very well. Loved the stor y behind the song. Nice job. Hello Harish, I'm so glad you enjoyed this.

I loved this tune when I was a child and I still love it today. Hi Kaili! What a wonderful hub about a folk song! I thoroughly enjoyed this great stuff, and it reminded me of my childhood days when imagination ran so wild.
