OK, now I’m unnerved a bit. Yahoo sent me a banner ad asking, “Are You Ready To Start Chemotherapy?”, apparently touting something called Nuelasta. Was I targeted for this? Are they picking up something from my fingertips or mouse-click patterns? I’m headed for the bathroom to see if my hair … or other things…is falling out.

None of the above (below). I was sorta kidding about at least some songs on that list, anyway. There were a couple of votes for Green Eyed Lady, including one from Mrs. Perils, but Mrs. Perils has decidedly not-green eyes, and I wondered if she was setting a trap of some kind.
So, I went for Since I Fell For You by Lenny Welch. I’ve had a soft spot for this song since high school, when one of our radio stations played it each night when it signed off (yes, they did that back then back in the heartland), and I would gaze out my window and wish I had had a girlfriend to feel that way about.

One of the more beneficent things about my Milwaukee client is that they have Diet Mountain Dew in the beverage machine. The current promotion the Dew is running awards a free song at iTunes if the right code appears insde your bottle cap.
I have me one of those right here next to my computer and I’m contemplating:
- Green-eyed Lady?
- Town Without Pitney?
- White Bird?
- Afternoon Delight?
- Baby I’m-a Want You?
If you were headed for a desert island and could take just one song which one would you download?
