I totally forgot that I drove behind a “driverless” car when I was in Vegas a few weeks ago. A tad unnerving.

I heard the Jackson 5/Mick Jagger song “State of Shock” today, probably for the first time since around the time it came out *googles* 40 years ago?! Anyways, not that it was a great song to begin with, but it certainly doesn’t hold up.

I had a dream the other night where, in order to graduate from high school, I had to play along to a newly discovered John Lennon song on the ukulele. I still have the tune in my head.
