I had never been involved in any social/music communities on the web before MOG,and I believe this is about the only place a pseudo-luddite like myself could plant roots and move into the 21st century.Thanks MOGHere's what happened this year for me on MOG:Mark Heyert,The Headhunters, Isaac Hayes,deadmandeadman telling me to lose my thesaurus,ivylander witicisims,jsguntzel's word pictures,crashpryor,mickimicki,blair's dancing movies,rawkpimp smackdowns,smooth hegemon, kate,mixes galore,david hyman telling me I need to like Dusty Springfield,refereeing bobby broom vs. jen kelly, kristiana's insights,anna and dale's mog wars, the raw-kidd-o (he killed me), mktackabery and the birth of funky friday, the class of girlcrawl, the sass of the indie pixie, the steady hand of Jonh Ingham, the deep ears of Spike, the north island sounds of Dzendvokh, Oatmeal to NOLA, the fountains of eclectcism-soulrocket and fistula spume,the political jams of I am (not to mention his kids and mine sharing their woodstock moment), chucky-isms, the mysterious Old School C,the brief wit of wdog,Joanna Newsom, The death,life, and singles sets of James Brown, Numero classics,Jess Horrible,wearwoolf (has never made a post, but his rare comments are appreciated),manysevens,mundotronica, the humor of etcvisitor,Cymande,multiply,masoo on fridays,lemontwist,Robert Ward,Lester Jonze,the sparkle of lizziegreeneyes, the philly mog meet, dermahrk showing me his iphone (my first),RoBp,bawston sean,Thecitizen, ciarian,Motown vs. stax, Hip Hop 101,Jazz 101, Budos Band,Proffessor Chainsaw,Utah Spike,the incredible words of poebegone, mike the knife, and brendanhalpin, the wisdom of the horse he rode in on and Universalis,arguing on aclasson posts,chatting with Greg Osby,sekout,kb,Mr.Frost,Betty Davis,fastnbulbous,Baaad Jazz,reckon,Lady Miss Ian,Terry Callier,funkjester,pseudo cyborg,troy powers,Nixne sivx (i killed him),Hermes,groon (my biggest laugh of the year),the blues expertise of mousetrapmedia,tigand,changling, WyzeWon,bloodtea,carolyn (and all the great new(er) moggers),and 1,000,000 other people,sights, and sounds I experienced here.

Buddy, I couldn't think of a better song to describe you.
This CD was part of my Thanksgiving Day soundtrack. I wrote a blog about it. I had a nice time connecting with family. Come read if you're bored: http://tinyurl.com/69jtsc
