Music Monday – "Every word, every little look, every little sign, every little phrase"

I wanted to keep the political theme of my last couple posts going so went a' searching for a relevant song I had in mind (in title if not in actual sentiment).  This live gem popped up hitting on a number of notes – it's from a concert in li'l London, it's from the first […]

Music Monday – "Fill my heart with song/Let me sing for ever more/You are all I long for/All I worship and adore" March 16, 2009

The week before we left for Vegas I posted Elvis as my Music Monday clip.  So now that we're back, I thought I'd close with another Vegas icon…  (and speaking of The King, a note to self: do not include the joking phrase “Going to Las Vegas for an Elvis Convention” in your e-mail auto-reply […]

Music Monday – "How I wish that there were more/Than twenty-four hours in the day/Cause even if there were forty more/I wouldn't sleep a minute anyway" – March 2, 2009

So, on somewhat short notice, Shea and I have decided to head for Sin City (except that we'll have Pace in tow so “sin” will be restricted to too much sugar and staying up later than 8pm.)  How this came about is that my parents called last weekend that they'd won a free flight to […]

FTRW 2009 – Music Monday – "You May Take Offense/To A Word Like Fuck or Shit (DICK!)" (Feb 23, 2009)

This was a popular song when I was in undergrad around the time that Nobel Peace Prize winner, Al Gore's wife, Tipper was contributing to greenhouse gases by shooting off a lot of hot air about obscene lyrics in popular music.  Thanks to Wikipedia, I now know that Anthrax released two versions of their album […]

Friday Fun Link – 25 Things I Hate About Facebook (Feb 20, 2009)

I did a “Seven Things You Don't Know About Me” mini-meme but I haven't succumbed to the pressure to do the full “25 Things” meme that's going around.  Apparently neither has this guy…And you know a meme has jumped the shark when Time magazine is weighing in with their own snark. So there's no way […]
