Put on Your Boots

SO I was listening to the new U2 song "Put on Your Boots" on my way home today and only one thing popped into my head:

sexy Boots?

blue and gold

Last night I went to the Cub Scout's Blue and Gold dinner with Dad (kinda, long story).

It was cute with skits and patriotic singing, BUT the best part was that the scouts make cakes to be judged. Dad was the only leader to make a cake (go figure) and he won "Best use of dots"! Go Dad!

I think it looks like a Dr. Suess cake. It was sooo good!!

*by the way, I took this picture with my new phone (LG EnV2) and I am pretty impressed with the quality.

Watch out!

My half of the March mix is about 80% done, so be prepared. Get your songs ready so I can have this out ASAP.

iTunes conundrum

Alright audiophiles I have a question for you...

I'm struggling with what feels like an exponentially growing music library that is already threatening to be bigger than my computer's hard drive, and that's without converting my CD library to digital.

What I notice though is that I have lots of albums that I only like a few songs on. I've always had a music purist collectors mentality when it comes to my iTunes in that I feel I must keep albums intact. So my question is this:

Do you keep full albums or do you only keep the songs you like?

for reals?

hey all,

please take a moment and watch a moment of true human art



I love LOVE this video, but I what I ask you, the reader, is this real?

Let me rephrase that. Is this staged to look like an improve group or is it an actual improve group that the company paid to use their video in their commercial.

I guess it doesn't matter. I love it.

Huzzah! [She has sides of iron]

I just listened to the January mix, and I must say, kudos to us! What great taste in music we all have. Can't wait for next month, Keith... I really can't wait for March, Stacey...
