Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Do you need help picking out appropriate music?

"Love Goes to a Building on Fire"?

The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I was invited to help put together an iTunes mix for Cocktail Party Physics. Since my "field" is metrology, I chose songs about time.

I'm geeking out with pride!

And I wrote liner notes!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Very scientific!

How did "Santa Claus Wants Some Lovin'" get in there?

What is the science of Santa?

I think it's in her liner notes, something about being away from her rocket scientist husband at xmastime. But! There's lots o' science about santa.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What should I listen to right now?

(Must be on my iPod.)

Am listening to Queen Elvis. Believe it or not, I don't have Green Energy. I Often Dream of Trains is one of my fave albums, so I end up reserving it for special occasions.
