When I worked at kroger we played a variety of music there, but every single day at about 4 minutes til hour change. They would play a jingle and one of five songs. The only two I can remember them playing nonstop were " Put Me in Coach " - John Fogerty, and "Jump" -Van Halen. It got old hearing the same couple songs nonstop, but It was nice because I would know an hour of my work day was done, haha

I really do wish they would at least put in the effort to change it up weekly for the sanity of their employees 😅 it would drive me crazy.

Oh trust me it drove me up the wall. Our climbing gym has the tendency to play similar songs too? Occasionally they will play something off the wall that is really good

Thank you and I may have to look into when RAP is happening. I'm not sure why it would be late as I have until the stagecoach turns into a pumpkin tonight.)

If only you knew how many times I typed it out and deleted it. I'll see myself off your beautiful lawn now.

I remember my brother blasting this one when I was little and he was getting ready to go out on dates. He's 9 years older than me.

I can only think of Duck Dynasty when I hear this one.

Did you listen to The Lone Ranger opening and hear The Lone Ranger say, "Hi Ooo, Silver, awaaay"?

I watched reruns of that, when I was a kid, with my dad. On Sunday mornings, in Chicago, WGN would play The Cisco Kid at 10:00 followed by The Lone Ranger at 10:30. We hardly ever missed them.
I still watch both of them, have them on DVD.

Sunday morning there wasn't much on but Saturday morning was toons followed by Sky King and then ride my bike over to the elementary school in the next town to watch B monster movies.

Good morning from part of the night crew, all!

Hoping everyone is filled with whatever puts a little pep in your step today!
Sticking with the 80s theme:



Happy Birthday Chris.

Please, please tell me you have The Honeymooners on DVD too. It was the other series I watched with my dad. So many good memories flooding back to me now.

Thanks Tom.

Don't have the full 38 minutes, right now, to do the whole step-aerobics program but the first song is a good one. Gloria Gaynor.

Sadly not yet. We haven't found it at a good price yet. We just finished watching all ten seasons of Perry Mason last night. I love watching the cars, tech, and furnishings change over the course of a long series.

--edit-- I just found out that part of the reason we haven't found it at a good price yet is that my wife does not care for the series 😢

I hope you appreciate how much effort it took to find step aerobics, with 80s music, shot on a Wednesday.

It ain't much but it's all I could afford for your birthday.
