Smith Road & 3rd Street (Office Lounge)

Local country music star Hank Ruff sits at a table in the back corner of the Office Lounge, a place which is probably a decent fit for lyrics of a recent release from Ruff: “One Thing I Can Count On.” Yeah, of course, I do know that's John Mellencamp in the right of the frame.

Smith Road & 3rd Street (Office Lounge)
Local country music star Hank Ruff (highlighted in color) sits at a table in the back corner of the Office Lounge, a place which is probably a decent fit for lyrics of a recent release from Ruff: “One Thing I Can Count On.” Here‘s the refrain—you be the judge: “There’s one thing that I can count on, to pick me up when I’m feeling down. That's a good cold beer at a country bar, that plays the honky tonk sound.” (Well, yeah, of course, I do know that's John Mellencamp in the right of the frame.) (Dave Askins, Dec. 20, 2025.)
The sign at the Office Lounge says the "King of B-Town." That's John Mellencamp standing. Hank Ruff is barely in the frame at the left. (Dave Askins, Dec. 20, 2025)
