Things I Learned this Week

Among the things I learned this week:

* The Amen Break‘s waveform has peak intervals that fit the golden ratio. (Courtesy: Wikipedia)

* This past week’s experience is that it is increasingly common for Web sites to not discuss and/or provide options for deleting one’s account. (Courtesy: Various service-oriented Web sites)

* Towns in Appalachia are passing fracking bans. (Courtesy: Local Media)

Pause to Appreciate the Songs that Matter

Let us take a moment to pause and appreciate the songs that matter to you.

Songs that make you cry: In three minutes, there are songs that make you cry. Powerful. For me, there are three that induce sobs, two out of sadness and one out of happiness.

Songs that changed your life: A few lines, a few chords–moment-for-moment, songs can be our most powerful experience. There are three songs that changed my life.

Songs with memories: Yeah, yeah. Everyone has memories with certain songs. We shouldn’t overlook these, but they are relatively small delicious potatoes.
