Friday Music Day: Jan 31, 2014
It's been so cold this week, I can't listen to my iPod while walking to the bus or waiting for it: the wires to my headphones become so stiff it's like they're on sticks and pluck themselves right out of my ears.

January 31, 2014: Transition
We now start the most irritating part of the retail year...selling TVs off the wall and mounting new ones to replace them. I guess it's pretty cool once it's done.

Sometimes, a word works its way into my skull and won't leave.
Nine Inch Nails, Queens Of The Stone Age, Lindsey Buckingham, and Dave Grohl – Copy Of A/My God Is The Sun
I didn't watch the Grammys (nor did I have any intention to), and afterwards, the only thing I heard about that sounded interesting was this. Here it is, including the controversial early hook which left certain participants, err, unhappy.
