Cool on the "common people" track.
Did I tell you my William Shatner music story?
The family and I were trekking (wait, poor choice of words)...traveling through
WA,OR,NorCal for a bit last summer. We stopped in a place just north of Oregon---Longview. They have this old , very cool hotel there. The orig. hotel is mostly business offices now, but the adjoining is an add-on 'motel'--sort of 40's50's era..but very cool--wood beam ceilings...kind of a motel that Frank Sinatra or Desi Arnez would've stayed in if they ever stayed at 'motels'. So, the kids are settled, and the wife and I go next door into the hotel's bar to relax and have a ..how do you say?:
nightcap.
The small bar is not super- crowded, but there's plenty of locals looking like they're meeting friends, etc.Very sort of down-home working-class Oregon feel.
There's a jukebox with a gazillion songs--I'm thinking mp3's. It's playing very quietly.
I have to see what's all on there.
I see the William Shatner song.
I pop in my coins.
and DANG is it SUDDENLY very VERY loud! and I'm standing right next to the jukebox, and it's not...well, maybe not the standard fare for Longview--and I'm feeling very self-concious. The waitress was very sweet and nice though.
"That sure is a nice song, honey". I sort of had to say...'yeah, 'member Star Trek?'
Sorry, that was probably the 'longest blog comment ever' (laughs)---but you must admit, it is a moderately interesting story!
