Thick As A Brick

Last night was that ever-so-rare beast, the work sanctioned night on the town. We hit our quarterly quota and decided to celebrate. And celebrate we did. I am nursing a rather hefty hangover, although it is free of the typically associated guilt of a weekday heavy head. I am at work, or at least my shell is. I have spent most of my time here so far scouring the internet for images that can accurately reflect how I am feeling. I thought the picture above was just about perfect.

I also thought that Thick As A Brick would be the perfect musical accompaniment. A YouTube search brought back some real gems like this live performance from MSG in 1978; but my personal favourite is this one:
The note on YouTube says "Product of Boredom". No shit. After about the third random anime image I thought of Geoff Nicki and how this would have to be up his alley (My personal favourite has to be "Ninja's don't swim they...DOG PADDLE"). Then I thought about how much I enjoy all the random people in my life. It's just conforting to know they're out there...being random.

Finally, after listening to this song over and over again I have decided that it deserves a spot high on my list of all time favourites. Ian Anderson is to Rock what Snoop is to Rap - a trailblazer. Who would have figured we'd have two posts in three days about flautists. They broke down the flute barrier and we should all be thankful. Speaking of random...

Happy Friday!

PS - Happy Groundhog Day!
