Happy World Goth Day!

Every May 22, the darkly clad and those that love them celebrate all that is spooky, macabre, and  other things most people leave for Halloween (not that we don't do this daily mind you, but you know lol). There are all kinds of way one can celebrate: from just listening to music all day, to having a horror film night, from going to a club, to reading novels both old and new. Even if you're not darkly inclined, you too can mark the day by doing a bit of digging into just what this whole goth thing is all about...you just may be surprised and learn a few things! So happy WGD to one and all, please make sure you check out the website in the fun little banner you see above, and don't be afraid to come to the dark side...remember, we have cookies! ;-)
PS: from today until the 29th, dark alternative band The Death Notes are allowing folks to download their song "Ghost" for free in honor of WGD and some WGD specials by the men who made it happen...enjoy!

It's Derby Day!

Kentucky Derby Barbie

Not only is it Cinco de Mayo as posted below, it's also the 138th "Run For the Roses" which means lots of horses, Mint Juleps, and of course, huge hats! Best of luck to all the participants! As for me, I'll be enjoying one the a fore mentioned Juleps with my Beanie Baby buddy (appropriately named) Derby. :-)

Earworm of the Day: Fave TV Theme Songs Pt. 1

Yes, part one...I'm sure I'll add more at various times as we go along lol. For now though, a few classic theme songs from some cartoons I used to watch as often as possible as a kid. For those who may not remember, back in the early '90s there was a two hour block of cartoons given the catch-all of The Disney Afternoon that aired every weekday at 3 pm. As a 9/10 year old, I was absolutely obsessed with making sure I was home after school in tie to watch them...especially Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers....if I missed them, there was no appeasing me. The line up changed a bit during it's run (Darkwing Duck and Goof Troop being two famous later additions, but those are two stories for another day), but the spirit remained the same, at least for awhile, and was always enjoyable. For some reason (don't ask why) my mind took a time trip (as it usually does) and thought about the shows as well as their catchy theme songs. Here now are the four original show's themes for your enjoyment in the order I remember them airing no less...why? Because I can! ;-)
