Nothing is funnier to me than hearing my twelve-year-old son singing some obscure pop song, like nobody's listening to him. Of course, around the blog house, oldies are de rigueur, but I do like lots of other music. This morning, I head him singing "Smoke, on the waaaaa-ter, a fire in the skyyyyy." Les you think he heard that from a Deep Purple album, he first heard that phrase from a Weird Al Yankovic song parody, "Polkas On 45." And, if you've heard that song, you might know where Andy has also been singing "Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand." Great. At least he breaks it up with "Chapel of Love" and "Runaway" sometimes.

Music for me this morning is the classic Dan Fogelberg/Tim Weisberg album from 1978, "Twin Sons of Different Mothers." This is a classic album, half instrumental, half vocal, with the soaring flute of Tim and the honest voice of Dan. Funny that Tim is best remembered for this album, but he was a jazz flutist for a long time too.

Rants for today: none.
Praises for today: nice wake-up call from M.
Work for today: at the church, more soldering.
Weather for today: Sunny and cold, highs in the upper 30s.
Satisfaction Index (0-100): 70 (proving that I can get some satisfaction)
