Would you rather be Hall or Oates?




Did you answer? Say it isn't so. I will put those mullets up against any hair band any day.

I might as well join Hall and Oates anonymous. I feel like there in inner 'consultant' in my brain like the one played by John C. McGinley in Office Space. I am a huge Hall and Oates fan and I celebrate their entire catalogue.

The reason why I bring this up is because yesterday while I was working out, doing 'cardio', crunches, and punching on the heavy bag. I was in the bliss of my MP3 player. Here were just a few of the songs I listened to.

"Blame it on Mexico" by George Strait
"Patience" by Guns and %&*#ing Roses
"Jane Says" by Jane's Addiction
"Sundown" by Gordon Lightfoot
"One Bourbon, one Scotch, and one beer" By George Thorogood
"Sabotage" and "Intergalactic" by the Beastie Boys

Apollo Creed never punched to "Method of Modern Love", but I did. Even Rocky had a montage. None of those songs should be played together. I agree that if there is some kind of Judy Judy courtroom show for music abuse, I would be guilty.

I don't know about any of the rest of you, but I think that youtube is the greatest intention of the 21st century. Almost every evening when I get back from working out, I can find and old music video or movie scene I remember as a kid, teenager, or young adult. That is quite a luxury. Inevitably it brings me back to a place of small joys I can relive again.
