  • June Swoon

    May’s gone – 5 months in the book. I know there’s some science about how quickly time flies as we get older, but wow – 5 months of 2019 gone. Let’s hope time keeps up this pace. Being very busy at work and home help. Let’s slow the pace a bit and listen to some…

  • It Was twenty years Ago Today, Sergeant….

    I’ve had this one in the can for a while. 1999 is a hard year for me – I wasn’t listening to many of the songs from that period. And sure, I liked the top song of 1999 – Cher’s Believe – but that doesn’t mean that I have it ( or the desire to…

  • Memorial

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Had a great night last night with friends (why am I now hesitant to say old friends? Long-time friends, maybe?). It was a little cool last night, but overall the weather is cooperating with us on this long weekend. Let’s continue the Memorial Day the right way, with…

  • Finale

    Tonight is the finale of Game of Thrones. I don’t watch a lot of television, but one of the shows I do watch is Game of Thrones. Thing is, I’m not obsessed with it as many seem to be. It’s an enjoyable little show that has been a little disappointing in its desire to wrap…

  • Mom’s Day

    Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms (and moms to be) out there. If it weren’t for you, not only wouldn’t we be here, but you acted as a moral compass for us. Thank you for everything. Let’s celebrate with some fine music. There’s a chance to dance ealry on – dance with your mom…

  • Billboard 1st Week of May 1969

    Last week I saw a tweet that showed the top 20 songs from the first week of May 1969. “Hmm,” I thought, “I do a look back at music for certain years, what’s on this list?” I was happily surprised to see that I had most of these songs, so I decided that this would…

  • What’s Happening Now

    I don’t want to spoil anything by saying this, but are we actually starting to experience this phenomenon called sping? Temperatures were in the 60’s here yesterday, and there was even a giant yellow orb sighting later in the day. Looking at the upcoming week I see other numbers that go into the 60’s (alas,…

  • Technical Difficulties

    Hi, this is a little late today as I had problems with the microphone (I know, I know, beyond my normal problems). I cleaned everything up this morning and it seems to work. So I was able to get the podcast done for today. Mission accomplished. Makes me feel good to be able to find…

  • Happy Easter

    Holidays have become times for visiting family, and we’ll be heading off to visit my son and his wife. So I’m going to post this early, as my Sunday will be busy with an Easter egg hunt and whatnot. Have a happy Easter! And why not start with music from Echo & the Bunnymen, Canned…

  • Tax Day

    Tax Day is coming up – hope everyone has filed. I do my taxes fairly early, and since I usually pay in, I file at the last possible minute. I try to make sure that I don’t pay in  a lot, but why let the government have your money for free? Sure, getting money back…
