Woke up this morning with the “Have Gun, Will Travel” theme in my head. “Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam…” ---

My last one was “It’s a Small World”, so at least this one… Shit. ---

Mine is self-induced because I keep playing [Ferrum Helveticum: “Izo’s Mood” by Andy Narell](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxKn7ZwPqGQ) over and over. Phrases of it will come to me in my sleep! ---

You’re a good crowd. The worst part is I grind my teeth along with the EW (playing “teeth drums” in my head), and now I have a headache. ---

> [@Neidhart](#): > > [Inbjudan till Bohuslän.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbPMc7Z9fiY) That’s actually a nice video, with a nice singer, but the accordion has to go. Is it Swedish? ---

During a difficult period in my life, this was my ear worm. I listened to it so many times that I could sing every word, and I don’t speak German. 😃 [Cheerio Nanana](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaXXf1Tivp0) The video isn’t the best quality, but I like watching the people rockin’ out. ---

> [@Neidhart](#): > > Yes. But I love accordion music, always have. Never understood why so many people are down on it these days. Same here! There is a South African rock band I like, [Kongos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aijr8HfxVVQ), that uses one, so maybe the accordion will come back into vogue.\* I also love [this song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iM3ymLH3VAo). I think the sweet tones of the accordion add so much to the melody. - I might possibly be prejudiced by the hunky lead singer ---

The accordion was a pretty popular instrument well into the 1960s, at least among L-7 squares like me. ---

> [@Neidhart](#): > > Yes. But I love accordion music, always have. Never understood why so many people are down on it these days. Personally, I admire accordion players; it’s a very complex instrument. The sound, however–and this is just me, hits me wrong somewhere in the sinus cavities. I think accordion music was so prevalent for quite a while, that it evolved, unfairly, into a cliche. And birds tweet. 🙂 ---

Sesame Street is brought to you by the letters **e a r w o r m** , and the numbers **25 or 6 to 4**. Guess how many times faster than the recording that those **4** measures are playing in my head? It’s bigger than **1** and smaller than **3**. And as I get busier today, will it get **faster** or **slower**?
