QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

97.5 Shmoopy Hits!

My parents usually have the radio on for the birds, and it's set to 97.5 Shmoopy Hits!

Well... that's what I imagine it's called. I'm always leaving the house with songs like "Yesterday" in my head. Today they played "It Was a Very Good Year", Gordon Lightfoot's "Sundown", and one of my fave Kate and Anna McGarrigle songs"...



...but the Linda Ronstadt version of course.

And then they played The Most Depressing Song in the History of Mankind.

I can't believe Janis Ian didn't shoot her brains out shortly after penning it.


 
PS - If I ever have a radio station I'm calling it 97.5 Shmoopy Hits!
