Now Playing (on my work computer): Lee Greenwood - God Bless the U.S.A.

It's one of nearly 3,000 songs that are set to random-play while I'm at work.

You know, the sentiment behind that song is not all that bad - a little naive maybe - but not bad. But the right-wingers (including Greenwood himself) have totally ruined it for me.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand ...it's over.

And now a Fall Out Boy song has taken its place.

From the songs I purposely put on my computer. In other words .... my fault.

In my defense, if I don't put any songs from my favorite albums on the work computer. I save those for more active listening.

I'm blaming the ex for downloading Greenwood and Kid Rock. Yeah. Her fault ... that's the ticket.

Former coworker's son is buddies with him, said he was a nice guy.

I can't get over the politics, and his music, yuck.
