HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! I'll give you my traditional birthday call tonight (provided I don't forget). I figured you were leading up to the day 37-37th B-day thing, but was too dumb to think of the dates of the songs. Cool. Any other themes that I missed?

Oh yeah, a song for 2008... Uh, I don't know. The only "new" song I would hear would probably be from Dora or something. I haven't bought a CD in a LONG time, and those I buy now are old jazz ones. Sorry!

Happy Birthday Jason, I just got done watching the president debates. It was pretty interesting.

Regardless of this I'm kind of a Coldplay fan, not sure how big you are into them, but Violet Hill, is a pretty good song that came out this year by them. Maybe you'd like that one! Regardless, take care man, and nice chatting with you tonight!

Thanks Guys, for the note and the phone calls.

Sorry I thought about doing more of a theme then just the years but I cam up with the idea on like august 30th so i didn't have a whole lot of time to plan out the first week, so i just went the years. maybe next time I will do something with more of a story behind it.
