I’m going to hit Shuffle on my iPod and see what plays. No skipping for a better (or less embarrassing) song; you will get the real deal.
I will embed the videos if they are on YouTube and if they cannot be embedded then I will link to them, or hyperlink as we used to say back in the early ‘90s.
Then again, we also used the term cyber a lot back then too. Hey it sounded cool.
And here we go. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll kiss about an hour of your life goodbye!
