rsadelleDo what now?
I kept hearing a song on the radio, and I couldn't quite figure out who that woman singing it was. I finally got around to looking up the lyrics. The song is "SexyBack." By Justin Timberlake.
Not A Royal
Have I mentioned here that I like Fergie (the singer)? I do. I like that she named her album The Dutchess. "London Bridge" has some hideous lyrics, but it's catchy. "Fergalicious" is awesome. "Glamorous" is similarly awesome. There's a lyric in it that says, "when I had a Mustang." There's a little hitch between "Must" and "ang," and the first couple of weeks I was hearing it, I kept expecting the word to be "mustache."
Signs Your Hip-Hop Station Isn't That Street
I usually get to work at 8 or a few minutes before or after. Today, I had to go to Kinko's before work (they couldn't complete my order before because they were out of paper), so I ended up in the car a little later. The result of this is that I heard the local hip-hop station's teaser for what was coming up in the next hour. Mixed in between the other sort of thing you might expect was a "Glenn County Fair Family Four-Pack."

And Ruth, Glenn county is totally the hood, I'm sure they have lots of...erm, I don't think this joke is even believable to continue with.
