| Description: |
My blog represents a creative expression of my day-to-day life in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It's not a total account of the events that comprise my life - just random thoughts, emotions, memories, revelations, opinions and ideas. I believe there's a song for every moment in our lives and whether we know it or not, or remember it or not, the days of our lives have their own soundtracks. |

Songtivia – All I Want For Christmas Is You
I have been posting sporadic entries this year to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the 45 single. With Thanksgiving now past, I am going to finish the year up (as well as this series) with Christmas/Holiday record trivia. It’s been a fun look back in to the past of the songs that had the ability to spin us “right round, baby, right round like a record, baby.”

The wonderful, wonderful cat
Whenever he gets in a fix
He reaches into his bag of tricks
I did not buy the product
Commercials seldom make me want to run out and buy their product, but they do make me want to run out and buy the songs featured in them.

Now the latest addition to my music library is a short little song by Canadian pop singer-songwriter Basia Bulat called “Before I Knew”. It’s featured
A new Mairo, a New Moon and a Yellow Boat
Friday after work I picked up Super Mario Bros. for Wii. What can I say, Mario and I go way back and while I would have rather had Nintendo release Mario Galaxy 2 instead of holding it off until 2010, SMB for Wii is classic fun all revamped. Oh, and did I mention, hard as hell? I need more lives. A lot more lives.
I’m looking forward to having fellow Mario/Wii fans over to play since the game is a (up to) 4 player game using a new game coding technology that actually allows multiple players to be on the same screen with other players. Oh,
Still sexy after all these years

Eric was in New York on business and his Mom was in Italy on vacation.
Eric sent me an email with a photo attached titled “Sophia” and I thought he was sending me a Golden Girls picture. When I opened the email I saw this:
