FMD: WGOM Summer Mix 2017
All right, ladies and germs, nice job again this year. Please find your own copy of the mix here.
In that folder, you'll see several files. If you want the individual files, go to the folder labeled "Tracks". However, this year (which I've wanted to do for the last couple), we've created a single mp3 that contains the mix in its entirety, which is the preferred method of consumption. The result is a seamless mix with each track flowing directly into the next. There are 3 versions of varying bitrates, so please select the sound quality of your choice (the lowest one isn't shabby or anything though).

It's the Milkmaid's birthday today, though by circumstance I won't see her all day (or tomorrow; I head to the cabin with the rest of the family either very late Saturday or Sunday morning).

June 29, 2017: Do A Flip!
I caught up to the present on a TV show I was watching (which never happens), and decided to finally pull the trigger on Better Call Saul after the mentions in the movie TV post. In the first episode, I saw he had the same flip phone that I used to have. Ahh, the early aughts...
