Circumstances have again conspired to hinder this dusty
music box project but I will persist. I have the tools and the time but
unreliable internet is making it hard to upload anything.

Dreaming of 1943 |
This episode features 2 songs from 1943 that don't directly reference
WWII but instead use metaphors to soften the message. Both songs have lyrics by Nat Burton...who would die shortly after
these songs were released in 1945 at the age of about 44 and music by an era of professional songwriters. (That sound
you hear is time's clock slowly ticking off the seconds of your life)
It's awesome to question sports decisions knowing the final outcome. But people miss the point during these monday morning debates. I'm not theorizing on the past, I'm actually talking about the future, using the past as a reference.
The current topic is the Green Bay/Seattle NFC Championship Game. With the score 19-7 at about 5 minutes left, Burnett intercepted a pass that Kearse-15, had go through his hands. 12 points is not insurmountable, but since that was the 4th interception of the day for GB they figured it was the end of the game. GB would run 2 minutes off the clock and then Seattle would throw another interception. Well, this is what happened....
