In response to "26 Paychecks Task 5: Daily Achievement Day 2"

Boy, am I glad to have found you! I can use your blog to fulfill my second day of blog posting for 26 paychecks. I've found I enjoy writing things in my notebook. Today was a grumble about library books. Tomorrow might be another installment of Struggles with the Library. But anyway, Hi. 😊

Was trying to trigger the blogging achievement. Oh nice Mukdahan is one of the places in Thailand I still need to visit. It looks nice from the pictures I have seen though.

I must've flunked. All I see is a white space staring back at me. Soon... off to visit Mukdahan and enjoy the cool day.

Hi there. Good post for the blog contest/challenge. I was curious to see which pictures people would pick today since we had options. Also, I'm glad that I was able to get out of the whole "language" requirement in college. I tried taking Spanish but it was much easier in high school.

The only movie I ever heard this song in was Beetlejuice. It's a good one, though.

I love Frankie & The Four Seasons. They're always on my "What do I listen to while I'm doing such and such?" list.

In response to "Blogging Day 36 I Stand Alone"

Neat ... its a fun series. It made nostalgic for the videogame itself though.

Soundtrack of Your Life Entry #10 Mr. Roboto

Day 10 of "The Soundtrack of Your Life" challenge.

Today's song is...
Mr. Roboto by Styx

This song appeals to the science fiction fan in me.

While it has a much softer beat then "Better Off Alone" from my last entry, it still hits very hard but with a melodic touch mixed with electronic synthesis. The best part of this song is an amazing set crescendos in the middle. There is section in one of those segments where the lead vocalist of Styx (Dennis DeYoung holds a note for an extended period of time adding a really nice affect: "You keep me alive ... you keep me al-li-ive". It is really awesome.

This is another song that I first heard played in a commercial however I decided to add it to my playlist after the song was referenced in the movie "Ready Player One" (which coincidentally was released to Netflix earlier this month). The film left me high on Sci Fi goodness and it reminded me how fun this song was when I heard it mentioned.
