Well when I opened this thread iwas listening to “All Things Considered” on NPR, by the time I got around to reading it, some unkown piece of classical music was playing. After reading the first page of the this thread I decided it was time to swap out the CD’s in my changer and update the MP3 play list too.

After I finished updating the CD changer I decided to go out to my tiny concrete slab of a porch and lounge in my hammock while listening to the Kronos String Quartet’s \* Unreleased \* CD which contains, among other great pieces, their cover of \* Purple Haze \*. As I write this I’m listening to their \*Released \* CD. Up next in the changer is Soul Coughing’s \*Irresistable Bliss \* but I think I’ll switch over to MP3’s before then, that playlist starts out with:

Soul Coughing - The Coffee Song  
Soul Coughing - (live) Down to this  
Soul Coughing - (live) Circles  
Soul Coughing - Unmarked Helicopters  
Soul Coughing - Murder of Lawyers  
2NU (everything from their album)

I’ll probably be back to the hammock by the time the 2NU rolls around, as it’s good porch music, plus there’s a storm rolling in and I want to listen to the thunder and the wind.

Well, it was a nice little mix of

“Haunted” by Shane McGowan and Sinead O’Connor  
“Leavin’ on a Jet Plane” from the Armageddon Soundtrack  
“Pure” by Lightning Seeds

That was about as far as I got before I realized it was a CD I had made for my ex before I realized she was my ex. I flung it into a corner and now it’s the “Sex America Cheap Trick” box set.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh… that’s much better.

Anyone wanna buy a sappy mix? All it’ll cost is shipping and a note (whether sincere or not) that she’s EVIL and I’m better off.
