Fear.

Didn't I just get over a cold? Oh, well. That's winter for you, I guess. (Especially winter as a cashier, handling other people's filthy luchre all day long.)

So anyway, I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone this morning, and just mix TheraFlu and Emergen-C together.

When I poured in the hot water, this intensely ... orange ... smell drifted upward, and I immediately thought, "Dear God, what have I done?"

It's sitting on the desk next to me now, cooling. Waiting. Plotting.

"There's something very important I forgot to tell you. Don't cross the streams."

Science.

Okay, the past couple of Tunes for Tuesday have been kinda gloomy. Enough of that. The weather is gloomy enough. Here's some bouncy pop goodness: What We Need More Of Is Science, by The John Benjamin Band. (This one goes out to josefinek, kespernorth, and morgyne especially.)

In other news, I'm working on putting together the TFT mix CD, just in time for the holidays, including several of the previous Tunes and a bunch more stuff you probably haven't heard. It's yours in return for a blank CD-R, or even better, in return for a mix CD of your own devising. Lemme know if you want one.
