Track 09 – Five Colors

This song by Sam Phillips is probably the only one on this list that is a one-hit wonder for me. I have heard a few other songs of hers and unlike the other artists here, none of them made me go out and buy any of her music.

I Don’t Have A Cat

While wandering the interwebs this evening looking to find something to entertain me when I came across this photo as the header image for a Lifehacker article and for whatever reason it spoke to me.

It is sort of like the Mona Lisa as it mirrors the painting’s novel qualities, including the subject’s expression, which is frequently described as enigmatic, the monumentality of the composition, the subtle modelling of forms, and the atmospheric illusionism.

Enjoy!

Red Sox Win The World Series Again!

This morning we watched Game #5 of the 2018 World Series on MLBTV and the Red Sox beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5 to 1 to win the 2018 World Series! Again!

The 2020 baseball season is supposed to start in less than 3 weeks, but not everybody is so sure, Mike Trout for one and me for another. But either way, I’m thinking that my access to MLBTV will be shut off pretty soon so I’m glad I got to watch the 2018 series again. And, unlike last time, I watched every single inning of every game.

You know, if you look back at my 2018 post about them winning, I talked about my buying a 2018 WS Champions hat. It included pictures of my previous hats from 2004, 2007 and 2013 from the MLB shop and the one from there of the 2018 that the players got on the field in 2018. I didn’t really like the MLB shop one, it was gray instead of blue, so I hunted up something that looked more along the lines of the previous three and I finally found it, I think on the Dick’s Sporting Goods store page. Less than 2 years later, that 2018 hat is long gone enough that I don’t even remember what happened to it…

That MLB Shop gray 2018 World Series Hat that I didn’t like is still available. Maybe I should buy now?

Track 08 – In These Shoes

This is one of two kind of “novelty” songs on this list. Although this track by Kirsty MacColl is not nearly as novel as Track #15 coming up in a couple months. And, typing out her name here, I learned that I had been saying her name wrong all these years, because I was mentally swapping places of the I and R in her first name and calling her Kristy…
