This summer I’m going to fill each day with so much music that I can’t fail to have a good day. I’ve been smiling ear to ear this morning with music filling my office. Well maybe the basement also and some of the upstairs.

I know Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start to summer but this one looks far from summerlike. That’s fine, music can warm my soul. And the whole day and night will be filled with it.

And every friggin day this summer. Music makes me happy. It pumps me up. Music and driving have always been one of the great joys in life to me. I like to dance to music, even though I’m not too good at it. I don’t care; music makes me move. Sitting here tapping my feet to Rock of Ages now as I type.

Today I’m flipping back and forth between my favorites on YouTube and the local radio station 100.7 The Bay doing the Memorial Day 500 countdown.

So, turn it up, blow your own horn or bang a drum or sing out LOUD. Get out of that chair and duck walk. Chances are you will feel better.

Oh, Gimme Shelter from the Stones just came on, I have to get up and do my Mick Jagger strut. Have a nice afternoon.

Random Thoughts of the Day

• The shame is what we don’t accomplish while we have the opportunities.
• I loved watching Phil Collins play drums.
• The lies are getting thin and old. Proving there is a limit on how many times you can repeat falsehoods.
• I don’t get drivers who buy convertibles and leave the top up all the time. It’s not right.
