So I haven't posted in three weeks and Mog is looking pretty different. What's this share button about anyway? Anyway aside from talking about how lazy I am at posting, I actually wanted to talk about music.Right now I'm addicted to this song by Francoise Hardy (who, according to some celebrity face matching site, is the ONLY celebrity I look like. I guess I just don't have a face for the masse

I hope that our few remaining friendsGive up on trying to save usI hope we come up with a failsafe plotTo piss off the dumb few that forgave usI hope the fences we mendedFall down beneath their own weightAnd I hope we hang on past the last exitI hope it's already too lateAnd I hope the junkyard a few blocks from hereSomeday burns downAnd I hope the rising black smoke carries me far awayAnd I never

Great Hanging Out Mix
I never got around to making that Ohio mix before I headed out for the holidays but thanks to my cousin-in-law Kate, I've found my new favorite mix. We listened to it on repeat for several hours while playing Apples-to-Apples (which I could do another entire post on, expounding on the wonderfullness of this game).She makes a mix every birthday for her older sister. This one is making me want to

Traveling Mix
My daughter and I are headed to Ohio in a couple days and I'm trying to make a mix related to the state (just for the hell of it really). I figure it will get me geared up for 3 weeks in the midwest. Here's what I have so far:Pretenders-OhioModest Mouse-OhioNeil Young-Ohio(notice a theme yet?)Songs don't neccesarily need to have Ohio in the title. Maybe some bands from the state? Or any events

The Fitness have some witty lyrics. Will post in a comment since I feel like I'm taking up half the Mog-o-sphere with my last post.

My First Mix Tape
Inspired by "Dale's post":http://mog.com/Dale/blog_post/30589 I decided to review my first mix tape. This was sent to me via snail mail and yes it is an actual tape. My cousin Kelly created this masterpiece in maybe '96 or '97. I was just entering high school and had begun to get involved in the local punk scene (which was surprisingly good for small town Texas). It's been a couple years now
