OK, so Dave promised to out-do himself in July, when we get another Friday the 13th. When was the last time we had two Friday the 13ths in a four-month span?

Stevie to lead off--and the first repeat from Ginger's 9pm opus.
Let's get right to it.

"On average, Friday the 13th occurs 1.71 times a year, according to University of NSW probability expert Professor Estate Khmaladze.
 
It can occur a maximum of three times in one year. That happens only when it falls in February in a non-leap year, followed by one in March. The third is in November."

BOS Eddie Floyd.

2nd repeater: Petty. I'm starting to feel a lot less lucky.

Allison Krauss? Just an educated guess--the dobro sounds a lot like Jerry Douglas.

I missed that -- My boss called me in to ask why My last day is in the middle of the week and why can't i work thru until Friday.  

Threepeater: Rod & Jeff.

You should tell him, "Fine, if you want me to end on a Friday, then today's my last day." God forbid you should actually have a few days off between jobs.

Some bosses just don't get it.

But first for me this morning. Thus BOS #1.

BOS #2, CCR "Bad Moon Rising"...although I can't hear this without chuckling about Chris Berman.

#4 on the repeater roster, I believe this is Joan Armatrading.

Definitely Allison Krauss.  I really like her, and easy on the eyes too.

And a pretty weird-sounding tune from Joan Aramatrading.  Not so good.

And I actually have pre-employment stuff to do at Kaiser on Wed & Fri, that's why I scheduled my exit for Tues. (Of course, I'll work in the Giants game on Thurs too :wink:  )  And since I don't have to get up early on Thurs, I may go to the Sharks playoff game Wed nite after all..

fourpeat: Ms Armatrading, but I totally don't mind hearing this twice.

Yup it sure is.  (I love her voice).
Now I'm eight bits...
