I'm rather spastic where Bob Seger is concerned. My pendulum swings from one side to the other on him. I have noticed though ... and I think it's one of those things that come with age and wisdom ... his lyrics make a lot more sense to me now than they used to... and I think he's starting to grow on me more as we both age :)

"Sundays ochorifric song of the day HAS to be Thriller. PPPllleeeaaassseeee!"

I visited a friend on Wednesday night who hadn't yet seen Wednesday's blog. This particular friend is not a big fan of "new music" ... and by "new music"; I mean anything released by anyone who was not recording music in the 70s. :)

Join the Coffee Achievers! - 1984
I have an intense love of coffee, java and all things related... Therefore I was ecstatic to find this little gem from 1984...
From the Wiki... "The Coffee Achievers" was an advertising campaign launched by the National Coffee Association in the 1980s, urging Americans to drink more coffee.
The television ads featured celebrities such as David Bowie, Heart, actress Cicely Tyson, actress Jane Curtin, author Kurt Vonnegut, then-Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Ken Anderson, and rock group ELO, and used ELO's song "Hold on Tight."
The campaign's tagline was "Join the Coffee Achievers!"
