And now for something a little different...I hope

Softball season ended today with a forfeit win against the BALCO All-Stars. I remember writing about the beginning of softball season, and now it's a bit sad that it's over. It's never a bad time having fun with good people.

So, in honor of the 2006 season (which we finished 7-8), I'm a little bummed out. I turned to a combination of Web sites to lift my spirits: YouTube and Ultimate 80s Songs.

Since I'm a child of the 80s, I can guarantee that most of the tunes I like have a video to go along with them. With that in mind, the list of videos I watched/listened to in order to cheer myself up tonight is below. Yes, you'll have to play them to see what they are and no, there's no WASP or Iron Maiden.

Here's hoping this works...





















Well I'll be damned. Despite a little HTML troubleshooting on the fly, it worked.

Oran "Juice" Jones!!! "Easy Lover" is great too. I see you saved the best for last though.

I'm feeling pretty meloncholy after watching those. We're getting old pal.

Wow! Some of those songs I had forgotten all about! What a great trip down memory lane. That don't make songs like that anymore! Or videos for that matter! ;-)
