Just a heads up to you folks sitting with a notebook and pen,

Mishki, the new podcast here in Garage Logic Land, is now coming out twice a week, Wednesdays and Fridays. If you're, in fact, scribbling this down, Wednesday is kind of tough to spell. It's not like it sounds. You want to spell a W-E-N-Z, but that, of course, would be a mistake. Friday is spelled just like it sounds. you're going to be okay there.

But Wednesday's a bugaboo.

Let me tell you, Pete, E-N-Z, but that, of course, would be a mistake. Friday is spelled just like it sounds.

You're going to be okay there.

But Wednesday's a bugaboo.

Let me tell you, people, just a pain in the patootie.

Jeez, it's hard.

I wonder when the theme song was invented,

and why people felt the need to start programs with a song.

Why can't the program just start?

Why must there be a song?

Is this important?

My name's Mishki, by the way.

Why a theme song?

It doesn't really make any sense.

I find myself feeling as though I'm just going along without questioning why we do certain things. When I visit someone in my neighborhood, knock on their

door, when they answer, I don't first sing a song,

I get to it. I get to my reason for showing up. I get to the business at hand. There's no prelude.

What if we sang before we did everything?

Well, wait a minute. Would that be so bad?

To have a song before we do anything, everything.
