Anyone else happy it's Friday and only 2 1/2 more weeks till Thanksgiving?
It's another rainy day in Spokane and here's my recommendation: listen to "November Rain" by Guns n' Roses at least once a week this month or every time it rains, whichever is more (you have no excuse not to, just click the play button on my playlist to the right). Soak in the Rock and remember "nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain..."
But that wasn't my thought. My thought: music is like a french fry; it's small, tasty and easily consumed. In fact, it's easy to consume many songs in one sitting. Whereas a movie is like a hamburger and a book is like a T-bone steak (you gotta be ravenous to eat two of those back to back). And visual art (like a painting or an album cover) is like a grain of salt. You could consume a dozen paintings in the time it would take to listen to "November Rain" or you could savor each and every granule...
