Barb, I was just thinking "this is awesome! So many good songs one right after another! What great DJ-ing!" So YES, that was a compliment!

Oh, it's certainly a compliment. Plus, how cool would it be if it actually happened?

Your name would be in medical journals!

Definitely a compliment but lets put it to a test ... keep up the great tunage and lets see what happens to Derek's brain. :) Ouch, me head is starting to throb...do I hear Siouxsie?

If that were to occurr, wouldn't we have to call THIS "mindless music?" (I know I experience a similar phenomenon when I'm forcefully exposed to anything related to Clear Channel.)

I think my auditory cortex has exploded a multitude of times since the Current went on air.

I suppose I must enjoy it, or I wouldn't keep coming back for more.
