My favorite email of the week
Comes from CK, so sent me one line: "So, I take it that you just discovered YouTube for the first time [...] ?
;-)"
The answer is, sorta. My new home computer has sound, and my work computer doesn't. I recognize that my exact format for these entries needs a little tweaking. Right now, they likely read like you've wandered into someone's basement with a guy who keeps playing his records and telling you personal stories about each song. As a writing challenge, that's pretty difficult to pull off. I don't think I'm doing it, so I'll have to revisit the play format here.
Probably need to pick fewer songs, be less discursive, focus on one story with a point, and don't bore the read with extraneous detail. Ah heck, if I'm gonna do all that thinking, I might as well call it work! Heigh-ho.
