2. Put it on Shuffle.

That is perfect. I'm pretty upset that no Zappa tunes turned up on mine considering I have hundreds on my iTunes.

This perfectly mirrors my thoughts about the lack of anything by the Dead on my list.

Well I got neither, although I did get a tribute to the Dead by someone so that's something.

But he gets brain damaged at his wedding. (I am actually quite surprised he didn't reject the idea of having a wedding in his life movie.)

"Should I Stay or Should I Go" wins best funeral song thus far, I'd say. Unlike the Dead we've been on about, Redmike is indecisive rather than grateful.

I've never shuffled music before, so I downloaded Musicmatch jukebox. This thing has a shuffle feature so thanks, darv. I'll learn to add music to it and shuffle so I can play this thread game.
