Me too. Interesting, though, that doesn’t seem like your typical fare.

Dear Dave:
as a “dang Euroepan”, I find the Day/Month/Year sequence much more “rational” than any of its alternatives (but who cares about “reason” in these “post-everything” days (besides “dang Europeans, that is…)).
I’m just kidding, and know you were too.
Love the dang show!!!!

@Dave, though i tend to fill my ears with loads of sonic disaster (ie rap-metal, heavy rock, hip-hop), surprisingly i have always loved singer/songwriters, back to the days of Cat Stevens and Fleetwood Mac (Lindsey and Christine are amazing in their softer songs). coming up through the decades, i’ve loved early albums from Indigo Girls, Tori Amos, Marc Cohn and others. these are the artists i tend to admire most.
currently i listen to an unimaginable amount of boston-based singer/songwriter Adam Ezra. you’ll see he made #4 on my best of 2008. http://www.411mania.com/music/columns/94011
i also listen to his former backup vocalist Abbie Barrett. she was my #42 best song of 2009. (you probably saw that already).
*in my best Paul Harvey voice* and that’s……. the rest of the story. good day.
