or so I'm assuming...

Mike, are you off today?  Is everyone else?  I'm "off," but at some point I need to go into the office for a few hours to catch up on some work.  Not looking forward to it.  But in three weeks, my work on this book will be done and I can catch my breath.

No, I'm working. Kaiser doesn't even give us day-after-Thanksgiving, much less MLK Day.

BOS Pearl Harbor & the Explosions, "Drivin'".  One of the truly fab New Wave tracks of that year.

I always liked the rhythm guitar in this Pearl Harbor song.

It's a nice enough song, but doesn't have the high energy I usually associate with a "cooker."  That had a fine rainy day mellow vibe, but cooked like a crock pot.

Coulda done without the Knight in Shining Ahh-muuuhh.

Hoping for some Bounce Rock Skate Roll, or at least Invisible Man's Band.
