Enjoy!

4. An American Tail- No Cats in America
5. Kim Wilde- Kids in America
6. Madonna- American Pie

Brooks and Dunn are playing at Stadium of Fire this year. I can't believe it. And I'm not going, the tickets are expensive! Oh well.

I'm glad you're reading Freakonomics. Expect to be quoting useless interesting facts for the rest of your life.

How funny. I was just thinking about that mix yesterday and wondering what was on it. All I could remember was the Ray Charles.

I LOVE Brooks & Dunn!

I'd like a copy of that - for my listening pleasure in the car. I like those for driving around.
