Why?
Because I'm lazy. I have a ton of playlists, but making them and keeping them organized is a pain in the ass.
At least my ass. I love technology that gives me what I want and allows me to be lazy.
The new feature in iTunes does just that. Never think about a playlist again. Just pick a song you want to hear, and click Genius. iTunes does the rest. It builds a playlist based off of that song.
Its sheer Genius.

Looks like we'll be having Rainbows for the big Radiohead show tonight. Which oddly seems appropriate.
They are a band which I missed the first time around, but about two years ago I really got into. They were one of those bands that I didn't hear on the radio, but everyone told me I would like.
Everyone was right. I turned my oldest son on to them. He digs them, but says they are freaky- he likes to listen to them when he goes to bed, but then he says sometimes it creeps him out and he can't sleep.
For me, I'm just excited to be going to a concert tonight. I love live music. I've heard they are great live. Its been a while since I've been to a show.
We're going with some good friends, which should be awesome because they say that this place is a nightmare to get out of after a concert - 2 maybe 3 hours. So we'll pack some treats and hunker down.

PS- Sorry for the lame post - feel bad about not writing, but my mind is on other things. I thought this would ease my guilt, but really its just worse. Friggin' catholic school.
BTW- I think I've mentioned it here before, and I know "real" fans think this song is lame- but I love Creep and if they don't play it tonight I will cry.
I'm man enough to cry.
Some mornings I pee my pants listening to him. He makes me laugh so hard I don't do sit ups to keep my rock hard abs.
If you don't know Artie, he is the lovable, degenerate sidekick of Howard Stern. Artie's had his struggles, we all have. He drinks more than I do, he loses more money gambling than I do, and thankfully, he weighs more than I do too. And yet he still seems to hit the office every morning by 5 am.
But I still love Artie. All his flaws, just make me love him more.
That's why I was so sad to hear he'd checked himself into rehab this week. I know this sounds odd, but I hope he rediscovered an old habit that he needs to kick, because if he didn't, and its just the regular Artie stuff.... Then maybe 'ol T needs to do some checking in too.
Nah.

Remember when you fell in love with Hector? But your parents wouldn't let you see him because he was 17 and you were 15? And they just didn't understand so you made him a cassette tape full of love that let him know exactly how you felt?
And then you met Bobby at summer camp.
Anyway- If you did a good job, Hector may have kept that tape, and he just found it under the seat when he was cleaning out his old Ford LTD to trade it in for a Prius. And now its posted on this site.

Dear Gentle Reader,
Okay so thats what Dear Abbey or Erma Bombeck or some other old bag used to say- reality of this situation is that now you really know wwhere I'm heading.
Anyway- the stats show that for people who aren't related to me, people like the list type posts. (Oddly, people related to me seem to favor this post)
Also- if they (family members) are reading this, they most likely will want to stop here and not read on. Otherwise read at your own peril. Bring it up on Thanksgiving if you will, but eb warned- I won't hold back.
You've probably heard of a hi-5 list.
Thats the five people you get a free pass on. Its like a dream situation that never happens, right, your significant other says "Sure you can do it with Ryan Reynolds, and I'll give you a Hi Five for it", cause you both know it'll never happen and if it did you'd really have something to talk about.
Anyway a Hi-5's are one thing, but at my advanced age (sure one of my best buddies is dating someone who could be my daughter) there are some girls out there who just make it feel like I'm asking for trouble.
So here is my Hi-5 that just feels wrong.
(In no particular order)
Minka Kelly - Okay, she's actually old enough to not get me in trouble, but she plays young so well. Have you seen the show Friday Night Lights? Well you haven't because Nielson ratings say so. But you should. And then your catholic guilt would shine through too.
Joey Potter - Okay, truth is Katie Holmes is gotta be batshit crazy or the worlds most patient gold digger. Because she's still married to the gay anti-christ Tom Cruise. But Joey Potter still makes me a little crazy. Damn, I wish I was her Dawson.
Li Lo - Man, I could help this girl out. Am I the only one who didn't fall asleep when watching Freaky Friday or Herbie the Love Bug? And now that Samantha Ronson thing too? Too much. Something about freckles and that smokers voice.
Megan Fox - Transformers. Hot. Dirty. Trouble.
Natalie Portman - Princess Leia's Mom is a hottie. Nuff said. Not sure, check out the coliseum scene in Star Wars Episode 2. Not to mention Beautiful Girls, but thats real trouble. Also try that Zach Braff Movie.
Speaking of Zach Braff- I have a weak spot for
Mandy Moore.
Carrie Underwood - Lets just say I'd love to make her want to carve her name in my leather seats.
Probably enough for now, any more and they'll have to lock me up.

I don't usually read software license agreements, but I saw a bunch of bold all caps shit while doing a recent update to iTunes.
WTF?
Their lawyers are more whacked than my ex.
THE APPLE SOFTWARE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN THE OPERATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES, AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION OR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS, LIFE SUPPORT MACHINES OR OTHER EQUIPMENT IN WHICH THE FAILURE OF THE APPLE SOFTWARE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE.
Wait... There's more.
You also agree that you will not use these products for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, or nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.
Frankly, I'm not sure if I can live by this agreement.
