The Wisdom of Mick Jagger

First of all, you have to understand that my family is not normal by a long shot... That said... Most kids, growing up, get pearls of wisdom from their parents like, "The darkest hour is just before dawn," or even, "If all your friends wanted to jump off a bridge, would you do it too?" But MY mother? Parenting by Mick Jagger... "You can't always get what you want!" Which, BTW, I have extended to my own kids, and the older two already know the appropriate response. (For those of you who are culturally deprived: "But if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need.")

So I'm heading to work yesterday morning in my NEW MINIVAN *happydance* and "Beast of Burden" comes on the radio and catches my ear... and I get to work, and am listening to the Songwriters station on Radio@Netscape - oh, how I love my Internet radio! - when I hear another Stones song. Coincidence? I believe there is no such thing. So I'm guessing the Stones have something to tell me. Immediately I switch to the "Planet Stones" station on the same service where I hear this really cool reggae cover of "Wild Horses"... but I digress... Anyway, unless you are a subscriber, that service only allows you 2 hours of listening time per day, after which I usually switch to LAUNCHCAST, for which I HAVE paid a subscription fee. However, they don't have an all-Stones station.

So what is it the Stones are trying to tell me? I don't know... two days of two solid hours of Mick, Keith and the rest, has yielded nothing yet. If you have any idea what they're trying to tell me, let me know!

Expect more really weird ramblings like this... My mind is a scary place to be!
