Update: I Was Reading Too

I know I just dropped mad music posts but I was reading in that time period too. I just went through 150 pages of The Blind Side by Michael Lewis, the brainchild behind Moneyball. Not the biggest sports book guy I know, but I was intrigued when I first read an adapted article in Sports Illustrated and then the New York Times, exploring different elements of the book. The story was compelling and it explores the evolution of the importance of the left tackle position in professional football as it explores the life of this really peculiar high school recruit in Tennessee. Truly interesting. Heartwarming, funny, well written. It's just been fun the whole time. And going with all this music has made my heart superhappy.

Update: Chyeah So....

So I've been totally neglectful of my responsibilities. I have looked at my first chosen playlist but was scared away by it's daunting 7.2 hour length. I will succeed though I will. Of course we are in a Sabbath mode right now so such music is unlistenable but I will conquer. I have made an awesome CD for Banana though (check Hotchie Motchie for my people descriptions; you might have to archive it). And I am working on a more rock themed one for one of the kids at work who in his coke-addled brain found 7 seconds to request it. So for that accomplishment I thought I'd present him with his very own CD. Even titled it to match his initials. Anyway, more later.

Update: Format

So I'm thinking that some of my playlists are quite extensive and quite boring at times. Plus there are new albums that I am more eager to hear. So instead of one at a time there will probably be an alternating series. And now to the 100 Most Famous Songs of the 1990s. Peace
