As part of my job I sometimes have to travel to schools. Yesterday I had one meeting at a school by my house and then in the afternoon I had to go way across town to the monster that is Albuquerque’s West Side. I try to take the bus as much as possible but when I have to travel to schools I have to drive. It gives me an opportunity to use the shuffle selection on the I-pod, which Yann hates. The idea that songs are randomly played is possibly the worst thing to him. So much in fact that there are probably a number of unfinished mix tapes, cd’s or play lists out there that he did not finish because the songs were not working well together. I have just over 6000 songs on the thing and enjoy being randomly surprised. I revel in the absurdity of some of the songs I have on I-pod, the guilty pleasures. Here is what it played yesterday:
Deceiver-Judas Priest
