right on the "Money", Mr Strong.  We'll be hearing this again in the Tax Day set, presumably.

OMG!  BOS1 to the Supes, gone schmaltz on "The Happening."  That fickle finger of fate!

one of their rare hits featuring an outside composer -- Frank "Happy Kyne" DeVol. BOS1

And BOS2 of course to MJ & his brothas.

BOS2 to the forgotten (and fably named) Velvelettes.  And they're right.

agreed on both counts.  Did ya see that story about the gay-hookup iPhone app, Grindr? Most depressing thing I've read in ages.

Most egregiously overexposed of set: "My Girl". Yeah, it's a classic, but I prefer my Motown deep.

I had never heard of that app until now.  I see its allure, but there's a part of me that pines for the days when people met one another randomly instead of calculatedly.
