This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

My new favorite "driving to work" song?

Jeff Buckley -- "Last Goodbye"

Which has displaced the New Radical's with "I Hope I Didn't Just Gave Away the Ending".

What makes a good "driving to work" song? Well, for one it has to build up some emotional momentum. You have to feel really good when you walk through those doors to work. Because if you start out your day feeling like you'd rather be in bed you're only going to go downhill from there. You don't want to hit rock bottom too early in the day. At least not before lunch, when hopefully you can steal a few minutes to put on the headphones and recharge.

Of course this only applies to people that need music for mental fuel. That is me. I've even created a playlist specifically for the drive to work.
