Hot Pockets

Can I just say that I love Hot Pockets!!!

I am really bugged by all the news about the fired U.S. attorneys. I am tired of it. Once and for all, they serve at the behest of the president - they are political appointees. Clinton fired all 93 when he became president - Hillary said she probably would do the same - so who cares if he fired 8 for political reasons - it is no different than firing 93 when a new president takes over. It is always political!

I too read Lefsetz and his blogs about how Patty Smith did not belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame got me thinking - who is not in the Hall that you feel should be there. I can think of two right off the bat - Joy Division and DEVO.

What are yours???

Not much going on in life - I am on auto-pilot also - I am going to take some time off on spring break so that should help.

On a good and funny note, I am attending a small pizza party at work tomorrow as we are finally officially shutting off our old software. Why this is amusing to me is I am currently working on the replacement for the software that replaced the software we are finally turning off...... TE-DAR!

As a side note for those who don't know (I am hoping very few and I know the AVMAN knows) My last song of was by Joy Division. After the lead singer committed suicide, the band reformed with a new member as New Order. I know you have heard of them.

Sansa Song of the Blog: Soul in Isolation by The Chameleons U.K. This is another 80's band that flew under the radar but the album this song comes from - Strange Times" is also an island top 5 for me. For additional trivia, this song was inspired by the book "Star Rover" by Jack London

Soul in isolation
I can hear you breathing down the hall
Soul in isolation
I can hear you crying through the walls
And if I had a mind to now
I could call to you
Or I could simply shut you out
No more would you cry

I'll give you my time to kill
But you'll never never
Break my will
Or I could sink a sleeping pill
And in the morning could be
Sleeping still
But most of you are much too ill
Way beyond a surgeon's skill
In bondage to a dollar bill
What more can you buy?

Oh, when you think on it
We're all
Souls in isolation
Alive in here
I'm alive in here

Come here
A word in your ear
You can't go back to the trees

Big bad giant standing tall
Crushing all the creatures
Great and small
I'd like to see this giant fall
When will it come

Words that rattle round my head
Struck by lightning someone said
A diamond bullet through the head
Hits me right in the brain
Are they right in the brain?

Will I see the jailer's face
Did my mother bring me to this place
Will I live to see his face
Will others come to take my place
In total isolation
Surrounded by crowds
Too many tears
From too many clowns
Isolation
Surrounded by crowds
In another world
Head in the clouds
I'm alive in here
I scream
But you still don't hear
I'm alive in here
I'm alive
Turn on the light

When you think on it
We're all souls in isolation
I'm alive in here
I'm alive

We're always searching for something
Searching
Dear dear dead days I'm longing for you
Sweetest virgin
Now deflowered
