April 11, 2014: The young people may not understand this one — it’s Eight Track Tape Day today. Oh, how I remember those giant cartridges, and how the sound bled through from one side to the other. I preferred vinyl, myself. (Kids: that’s another format that music came on.) Today is also National Cheese Fondue Day, which isn’t a favorite for me, because I’m just not a fan of communal dipping of food. I also don’t use the chocolate fountains at events, no matter how tasty it might look. Because who knows what’s been touching that chocolate.

Finally, it’s International “Louie Louie” Day. Please enjoy this awkward website full of “Louie Louie” trivia, and consider the fact that at one time, there was a push to make it the Washington state song.

We gotta go. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. (So lyrical!)
