Friday Live

What an eventful week. Here are a few of the things that happened in canowine's world this week:

- I got rear-ended on the beltway.

- The lady who rear ended me had a dog that escaped her car when she got out to give me her information. I saved it from certain death. Maybe I should have let it go. It was a really ugly dog, more porcine than canine, like a giant pig embryo.

- It was the hottest week of the year so far, and the AC at the house went kaput.

- I went from working in my own office space with a door and a window to sharing a glorified closet with six other people.

- I lost the cord for my computer speakers.

- EMI ordered me to remove all mp3s from artists owned by them.

- I removed the EMI mp3s, and the rest of my mp3s were removed by "someone else."

- My transmission needs repair.

- And more.

But you know, it's Friday Live, and that's a wonderful thing. We've got a leitmotif going on for today's edition. See if you can guess it.
