BOS to Andy Gibb and the #1 song of the year, "Shadow Dancing."  You could NOT get away from this in Pittsburgh at the time.

And I can't get away from it now -- 3rd time (on 3 diff stations) in a little over a week.  And another South Park reference for me.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

TANC, or at least a nice bit of serendipity:

Yesterday was my wife's birthday, so we went out for a really nice dinner last night. We left the restaurant about 20 after 10 and of course I flipped on the replay in the car on the way home, just in time to hear Respecta-bowl. We're driving up Pine Street, and right after the Gerry Rafferty song starts, we cross...Baker St. I got a smile out of it, but Sarah thought I was just a geek.
Let's get right to it.

LOL! That's because you *are* just a geek!

When I came back from my first trip to London back in the '80s, at least 3 different co-workers asked me "So... did you go winding your way down Baker Street?"
