Don't Know Much Country Music, but Here's One That Always Makes Me Smile

IF I need some cheering...
And I remember to play it,
This one from Wilco and Billy Bragg
Never fails, like some others.
Good to have tools in your kit,
I've found.

The day's only a couple of hours old for me,
But I already feel something
Momentous and so much to
Look forward to.

Here's to you!

(My Disclaimer: No intention of preaching anything; I just like the song.... and the strumming on the ol' guitar)

Half and Half and Tiny Memories

The first creative thing I remember my parents do in media was make a reel-to-reel shot of stop action shoes moving all over the apartment.

I felt so proud of their accomplishment, and delighted as a tiny child in watching it over and over and over again.

This video is relentlessly upbeat music with neat half-animation effects and stop-action creativity that reminded me of my parents in their twenties. Comes in at about 3:26.

Good for cheering on a dark and dreary night..
