		<title>See Ellis Brooks Today. For What?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


No more Ellis Brooks Chevrolet, it seems. The longtime dealer on Van Ness Avenue is apparently switching to used cars only, which probably means it will be gone and replaced by a big box retailer within a year or two. The really sad thing will be the loss of all those great bits of neon [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy and Sad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s always a point near the end of the semester when you have that sort of breakthrough and realize that, even though you still have a ton of stuff to do, you will  get it done and live through it all. That point came at about 3:00 this afternoon for me.

Unfortunately, it was also tempered [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Newest Way to Feel Old</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my big, pressing projects right now is to create an EAD-compliant finding aid for the papers of the man who was chancellor at UNCG when I was an undergraduate there. I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;m more disturbed by the fact that my undergraduate years are now officially part of university history or by [...]]]></description>

Sheryl Crow
All I Wanna Do, 1994 
I always just liked this song. It makes me think of mildly hungover nights driving around San Francisco, which begs the question of why I like it so much. But still&#8230;

		<title>I Win</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When you put a lot of graduate students in a room together, what you usually wind up with is a pissing contest where everyone tries to prove that he or she is the busiest person in the room. Screw that. I know I&#8217;m the busiest person in the room, so I have nothing to prove.

		<title>New Stuff. Sort Of.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Our front porch has a new column. Actually, it&#8217;s a restoration of an old column that disappeared sometime during the 45-year history of our house. Yes, the house is old enough that I&#8217;m speaking in terms of &#8220;restoration&#8221;.

And my mom has a new Hyundai. Which means that I&#8217;ll soon be inheriting her six-year-old, very low-mileage [...]]]></description>

Spider
Better Be Good to Me, 1981
I didn&#8217;t even know that before this was a 1985 hit for Tina Turner, it was a 1981 hit (if that&#8217;s the word) for Spider, who also recorded &#8220;New Romance&#8221;, one of the best pop songs ever. I knew Holly Knight wrte the song, but I somehow missed that they&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

I Dream Alone
The Graphic, 1984
That&#8217;s The Graphic, a/k/a the Triad&#8217;s own Treva Spontaine and the Graphics, via Duncan. I didn&#8217;t even know there was a video for this song, although I have a nice recording of a WUAG station ID that features it, and them, and was assembled by him.
I leave you alone now, both [...]]]></description>
