Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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.

My coworker told me yesterday she listened to Led Zepplin - the Viking Kittens song (yes I know it has a real name but Viking Kittens will forever be its name with me) to psych herself up before she interviewed here.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Most of my work songs are take this job and shove it/working on the chain gang type songs, which I'm thinking aren't quite right.

Good point. I just took a look at the playlist friends of mine played in a show themed "work", and minus the ones in Hebrew, here's what they got:

Nina Simone – Work Song
Hoo Doo Girl – Quit That Job
The Residents – My Work is So Behind
The Fall – Fit and Working Again
Ramones – The Job that Ate My Brain
The Great Bertholinis – Pogue Mahoney
Dolly Parton – 9 to 5
The Members – Goodbye to the Job
Walkmen – This Job is Killing Me
Abner Jay – I Wanna Job
Beatles – Hard Day's Night
Radiohead – No Surprises
My Brightest Diamond – Workhorse

Hardly inspiring enough to get you out of bed.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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

That's awesome! Emmett used to make me watch that video over and over again.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Shir, exactly--I have some of those, but I want some more inspirational ones.

Tom, any chance you could send that to me/B'rawk?

Juliana, I added the GCH, plus Roughest neck around by Corb.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

OR Kanye's "Stronger", which is one of the songs I depend on to get me going on my runs.

(Also from that mix that might be good for yours, Perkins: "Carry On Wayward Son", Kansas; "Heroes", David Bowie; "Bitches", Mindless Self Indulgence; "I'm Not OK" and "Famous Last Words", My Chemical Romance; "Children of the Revolution", Moulin Rouge Soundtrack)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

"Luck in Her Eyes" kd lang--a great psych up song.

Gmail is blocked at work, but I'll do it when I get home.

Thanks all!
