and I've always wondered if you were aware of the song's origins when you put it on the mix.
I am now!
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I might have to get the Devo 2.0 album. (They hired a bunch of kids to play their songs in some curious mix of School of Rock and Kidz Bop.)
Except they changed the lyrics to make them... ohhh... pointless! No "freedom from choice"; no "it's not for me". [link]

My mix is complete, but 1:05 minutes too long! Argh! now I must find a substitution.
Once I resolve the timing issue, I'll probably start uploading the mix a couple of songs a day. It takes from 30-60 minutes to upload things on my dial up, and it has to be babied, so that's probably as much as I'll have patience for.
I still have to write the liner notes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am probably going to send mine today or tomorrow, since the rest of the week is going to be crazy for me. Plus, I really need to stop tinkering with it.

Sue and Perkins, I'm looking forward to seeing your mixes.
Sue, you can always just designate another song as fulfilling two categories. I mean, that still entails a cut, but it might be easier than slotting something in by time and category.

Oh, I have one song filling four categories. It's just that there's not another song on the mix that fufills the problematic category, and the song is 5:05 long, so I'm just going to find a shorter song.

85 minutes Canadian is like, what, 50 American? I think you should use the song you like.

Hey! We have a very strong dollar these days, those jokes no longer apply. Anyway, there has been much tweaking, including a few last minute substitutions that had nothing to do with length. But I'm done!
EXCEPT! I just realized I composed my mix on my iPod and so I have to figure out what songs aren't on my computer and re-rip.

Hey, for anyone else who (on a mac) was having trouble with RAR files--use MacRAR or UnRARX, and it'll unpack it just fine.
