More songs I never thought I'd hear again

Music videos I never thought I'd have to see again before working in a fitness center, that I am now forced to reckon with on a regular basis:

  • The Romantics - Talkin' in Your Sleep, entertaining, but stabbity.
  • Paula Abdul - Forever Your Girl, I can't bring myself to link this one.
  • Hall & Oates - Private Eyes, check out the 'stache on Oates.
  • Survivor - Eye of the Tiger, from the walking-while-singing school of music video production.
  • En Vogue - Free Your Mind, I can't make myself link to this video, I simply can't.
  • Toni Basil - Mickey, what I just said about the Free Your Mind video x 12.
  • The Go-Gos - Vacation, nope, not going to link to this one either.
  • David Bowie & Mick Jagger - Dancin' in the Streets, I find this one particularly stab inducing.


Music videos I see on a regular basis at work that are awesome, either in their own right or in the context of being played in a fitness center:

September 2nd - Predecessors

Among the tidbits my predecessor left in my workspace is a handwritten list on a sheet torn from a yellow legal pad.  I found it tucked into the inside pocket of a three-ring binder while I was looking for something else.  On it, a selection of soups available at the hospital cafeteria have been sorted under the headings: "like" and "never again".

Like:
tomato florentine
twice baked potato
harvest grain w/portabello mushroom
broccoli
asparagus
vegetable lumberjack

Never again:
cheesy cauliflower (bacony)
wisconsin cheese (bacony)
yukon gold potato (bacony)
fire roasted veg. (too hot-spicy or too salty)
cream of mushroom

She must not have been a bacon person.
