Maps and Calendars

goonies mapthe other morning jenny asked me when my next CPR class was scheduled, and i said ” hang on, i need to look at the map.” obviously i was referring to a calendar. it’s an easy to mistake one for the other if you really think about it: they are both made of paper, they both fold, they both have destinations. as i get older my brain is compacting alot of these things that resemble each other. it started with weddings and funerals. maps and calendars are just the newest addition to a growing list.

Glenn and Me

Another 80s Fix

atari 8 bitfirst i started listening to stuck in the 80s, then there was casey kasem replays every saturday night on the cape, then the retroist, and just this morning i discovered ANTIC the atari 8-bit podcast. i shouldn’t be surprised that nerds like me keep coming out of the faux woodwork.

1981: Casey’s Top 100

casey kasemit is 27 degrees outside. the temperature outside will be in the single digits before i wake up tomorrow. right now jenny & i are listening to the top 100 hits from 1981 ala casey kasem’s american top 40 countdown. ironically he just got done playing 27 and 26. he’ll get to number one by 8:00 tonight, i hope the temp doesn’t fall as fast. if you wanna catch the countdown again, it gets played tomorrow (sunday) afternoon on this station out of philadelphia.
