Had a rough Monday. It is 10pm and I still have 2-3 hours of work to do. That said, I ran across these three stories and it really picked up my day.
3 Million Mile Volvo: Read the NPR story about Irv Gordon who has driven his beloved car for the last 45 years for a total of 2,900,000+ miles. It is the original engine (rebuilt twice) and he is on track to reach 3 million miles before his 73 birthday.
100 Guitar Riffs: Watch this video of Alex Chadwick playing 100 famous rock-and-roll guitar riffs in one sitting. 12 minutes of guitar heaven. Clapton, Rolling Stones, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, REM, Grateful Dead, Queen, Van Halen, GNR etc . . .
