I swear, Beej, I'm still taken aback by your avatar every time I see it, as if it's the first time.

y'all can say what you will about Tom Cochrane, but in the spring & summer of '92 I was about to leave the country for an indefinite stay in Taiwan & had the travel bug so bad I could taste it.  This song will always resonate for that reason.

Copy editors' term for "to come," intentionally misspelled so it's not mistaken for actual text.


Or for Top Cat. The indusputable leader of the gang.

The Aristocats, izzat?


er, no -- Top Cat, one of Hanna-Barbera's animated sitcoms that followed in the wake of The Flintstones and The Jetsons. It was essentially Sgt Bilko with cats.

Ooh, the elegant "Not Enough Time," from the criminally underappreciated Welcome to Wherever You Are album.  This one deserves to be in any music fanatic's canon.

Thanks! But, it may be time for a change. I just haven't thought and/or found anything that strikes me fancy yet.

MEoS = INXS "Not Enough Time"

Most Evocative of Set, this was used by NBC in a montage during the Olympics to great effect.

My all-time favorite #28 song.
