“I Alone” by Live on the stereo. Not sure if it’s from the bartender’s iPod or some internet radio station, but either way, it’s not helping my cause of not falling in love with this bar. Or the bartender. (Taken with Instagram at Amsterdam Cafe)
Let's Party
Rod: Hey everybody! Got some awesome news, we have a new crew member today: Denise.
Denise: Hi, everyone.
Rod: So I thought it'd be fun if we all went around and said our name and a little something about ourselves. I'll start. My name is Rod, and I like to party. Alright, Dave, you're up.
Dave: Uh, hi. Uh, my name is Dave, and uh, *I* like to party.
Rod: Um, no Dave, I just said that I party, so maybe you could do something different from me.
Dave: My name is Dave, and I am the stuntman.
Rod: You know what? Let's move on. Rico, you're up.
Rico: Uh, hello! I'm Rico, and I like to party.
Rod: Yeah, uh, Rico, what did I just say to Dave?
Rico: Who?
Rod: Dave!
Kevin: I like to party, I'm Rod.
Rod: No, you're Kevin!
Kevin: Right. Kevin. I party.
Rod: No, no, you don't. Okay, nobody parties but me.
Dave: Yes. And we party.
Rod: No!
Rico: Yeah just Rod.
Rod: Yes.
Rico: …and me.
Rod: No! I'm the only one who parties!
Kevin: I'm pretty sure I partied before.
Rod: No Kevin, I know for a fact you don't party, okay? You do NOT party.
Kevin: You're right. Dave's the party guy.
Dave: Haha, sweet.
Rod: Oh my god, shut up, okay? I'm just gonna do it for you. Denise, this is the crew. Dave's the mechanic; Rico makes the ramps; and Kevin is team manager–slash–videographer. NONE OF THEM PARTY. Right? Got it? Okay: Let's party.

“241” by Reel Big Fish, from Turn the Radio Off (1996)
I checked the balance of one of my checking accounts earlier and I’ve had this stuck in my head ever since.
Testing…
Fuck Instagram; I’m trying out this thing called Streamzoo. Also I played some pinball and got a score Beavis and Butt-head would like. #pinball #theatreofmagic

“Lean on the Wind” by Swede Mason featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger (1990–2012)
“Anywhere, anywhere. I don’t know.”

“Happy Birthday” by Stevie Wonder, from Hotter Than July (1980)
By the way, MLK Day was not a holiday when this was released. Stevie wrote this as part of his campaign for the observance of King’s birthday; the album liner notes had text and photos arguing for the country to adopt legislation that would officially recognize January 15th as a holiday and encouraging the listener to observe the day the following year. The bill was signed in 1983 and the holiday was first observed in 1986. It was not until 2000, however, that all 50 states finally observed the day.
Just a reminder that sometimes we have to fight for things that are right or they just don’t happen.
