the radio synchronicity gremlin strikes again

This won't make any sense whatsoever to you unless you're reading my NaNo effort.

When I was driving to Seattle this morning for an appointment, two songs came up on the radio*, one after the other. They were:

The Eagles. Hotel California.
America. Lonely People.

I laughed so hard it was a miracle I didn't wreck the car. I swear to God, I haven't heard Hotel California in at least fifteen years, and I did not plot poor Dan's story based on that song. Really.


*the station I tend to listen to in the car when I'm not tuned to the all news station for the traffic reports is a "classic" (not classical [g]) station -- IOW, they play the stuff that was popular when I was in high school

videos, we haz videos

I love Simon's cat. With a passion. Unlike Garfield, he's a Real Cat.


And: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sd1IfDN6VKY (the embedding is disabled, alas)

Which is the music video for the Proclaimers' song 500 Miles with footage from the movie Benny and Joon, kyped from someone on my blogroll. Somehow I managed to miss this, although I love the song, and I love the movie.

Anyway. Added to my previous post, this is three very large grins for the day. First time I've hit my full quota of grins in a while [g].
