Dear Lovely Friends and Readers,

Today is Saturday, April 26, 2008.

Today is Entry Nymer 45.

Good morning, all. Or as Anne Curry from "The Today Show" would say, "Good morning, good morning, everyone. In the news this morning, good morning . . ." Aww, bless her little heart. It's okay, Anne, I still love you, even if you are a little on the dippy side. Boy, does Joel McHale love to play that clip over and over and over again on "The Soup."

It was rather late last night when I posted my "Alphabet of 'Bands'" thing that Cami messed up and sent me. You were supposed to post a favorite song for each letter of the alphabet, but Cami misunderstood and did a band.

I strongly encourage everyone to check out some of these songs, if you've not heard of some of them, as well as some of the bands listed in the bands version of this little quiz thingy. And I never thought I'd see the day when I could thank Cami for a stupid E-mail forward, but thanks Cami, this has been fun.

Take care.
