(20:36:27) beaucoupkevin: I may just put that in my blog!

Ladies and Gentleman:

My friend Karen was listening to Christmas music in October. For God’s sake, don’t be like her. There’s so much in the way of web radio out there that means you needn’t succumb to the succubus that is that “Sleigh Ride” song prior to December. Please, if you’re listening to Christmas music now, get help. If you know someone that is doing this, get them help.

Appendum:

Moments later, I get this…

(20:43:00) karen’sAIMid: i really am afraid to tell you what i’m listening to.

(20:43:14) beaucoupkevin: What is it?

(20:43:35) karen’sAIMid: well, now it’s colin hay but it was…

(20:43:40) karen’sAIMid: counting crows.

For the price of less than a cup of coffee a day, you can send Karen a CD of music that isn’t utterly worthless. Think about this. Give what you can now, before it gets worse. Colin Hay is a step in the right direction. Let’s show her the rest of the way, together.
