Picks and Pans...
Seeing how I did a little tribute to music at the end of my last blog, I thought I would share my vast knowledge of the music world and give a little heads up on some of my favorite songs right now. So, fire up the iTunes, Limewire, Kazaa, whatever other downloading service you may be running on, and get these songs.
First up, "Disappear" by Hoobastank. I didn't think they could top "The Reason" but somehow they have. It may just be me, but I think "Diappear" blows that other one out of the water. Keep rockin' Hoobastank (mainly because I like to say Hoobastank)!
Next, probably my favorite song of the moment (changes quite a bit, so this may already be obsolete if your reading a couple days late): Linkin Park and Jay-Z teaming up and mixing together two of their songs into the uber-hit "Numb/Encore" (okay so they suck at naming songs). It is Linkin Park's "Numb" mixed together with Jay "I thought he retired a couple months ago"-Z's song "Encore." Really good stuff. They have a whole CD of songs mixed together too. I may actually have to buy that.
Now for a don't. Supposedly Shania Twain, while good looking, has put out a really crappy song. I personally have not heard it, but a good friend (Craig) told me to not bother. Thanks for that heads up buddy!
Next, another rap song..."Breathe, Stretch, Shake" by Mase. Heard it all the time in Minneapolis a couple weekends back, couldn't get it out of my head, now can't keep from not playing it on iTunes.
Welcome back Green Day! Didn't really go too much for "American Idiot" but "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is a solid hit.
I haven't decided yet if I really like Snoop Dogg's song "Drop it Like its Hot" but Pharrell did help put it together, and I love Pharrell (again, maybe just cause I like saying Pharell).
Trick Daddy kinda blows, but "Let's Go" (the one where he takes Ozzy's "Crazy Train") is catchy.
Finally, some oldies worth throwing into your mixes..."Stand by Me", "In My Life" and for the Christmas season my personal favorite "O Holy Night." One big no-no, please do not support Ron Artest (suspended NBA player) by listening to his piece of crap group (Allure? I think- but who cares) Happy Listening

CKG is a big music fan, all. I can attest to that after rooming with him for a year and a half in college. I can see him right now...jamming out by clicking his mouse to some "Hey Ya" while surfing espn.com on his laptop. It's all true....everything he says!!
Christian, you'd like this...I was doing a mini-unit on maps in business math today. I had my kids find "Lineville" on an Iowa map! It's the little things in life that can make a teacher smile.
