Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Totally and completely random question - a John Lennon song has the lyrics "War is over if you want it." Does that seem awkward to people? Wouldn't "War is over if you want" or "War is over if you want it to be" be better? (Except, of course, he was constrained by having to come up with two groups of four syllables.)

I'm just back from drinks with a couple people from my writer's group. Had an excellent conversation with Erik Davis (who did the 33 1/3 book on Led Zeppelin) and Lynn Peril (famous for the zine Mystery Date).

Yeah. Unlike some people here, I don't trust elevators for my news.
(Yep, they have computer monitors in the bus that dispense news and entertainment.)
