This convenience of the modern area brings you the music of another age..

So I'm sitting here in the apartment without pants, listening to Joni Mitchell music.

I'm sure there's a metaphor in there somewhere.

But all I can think about is that scene in Love Actually where Emma Thomson's character realizes that her husband is having an affair. And she's just an emotional lump of hurt-bag, listening to Joni Mitchell. The woman who taught that cold-English wife how to feel.

But allllll these youtube comment boards keep talking about how sad it is that Joni Mitchell is dead.

What?

Don't fret people. I googled it for ya, and Joni Mitchell is very much alive and well.

Jeeze, I'd kill to interview her.

And continuing with your musical education, here's a hit from Woodstock '69.



Soulful. Passionate. He exudes sex.

But can it compare to... this?



The comments section on this one keep giggling about the line, "I get high with a little help from my friends."

McCartney's attitude about cannabis was made public in the 1960s.

What's so wrong with that?

Buy me a leather jacket..

And we begin ... I'm standing in the drive way, I may or may not be smoking something illegal. I can hear the unrelenting wail of sirens on Danforth. A parking-enforcement car slows down. And shines a light into the interior of my '91 Escort. And I think, "Oh shit. I better move my car off the street! I'm gonna get a ticket!" I wonder who they were looking for. And more importantly, what did they do?

Sorry. *PuppyDogEyes* Please forgive me...

Poor neglected blog. There's been far too much procrastination and general tomfoolery in my life (perfect blog fodder, I know) Plus, pesky journalism keeps getting in the way of things. Oh, but I have BIG plans for this blog for the summer. Be patient. May 1st will usher in a NEW era of shenanigans. Quickly though, because I know that you, loyal reader, are chomping at the bit. In online meeting today, we all were shamed by our editors. Shame, shame, BAAAAAAD journalists. WHY? No one attended the 4/20 rally, where the shit went down. I guess we were all caught up in our own celebrations :)
