Honestly, I'm not that sure. I work in the accounting offices for one, but I'm not entirely sure. Maybe you just call them up and ask if they're hiring. There is some classes that you have to take in order to actually be able to work. I think it's just a few nights at the local community college.

Mister Lebo does it. I guess I will do it too. Here is my MP3 playlist that I am listening to:
Favorites list:
1.Yes: Starship Trooper, I've Seen All People, Roundabout, Long Distance Runaround, Owner Of A Lonely Heart.

2.Iron Butterfly: In a Gada Da Vida

3.James Taylor: Something In The Way She Moves, Carolina In My Mind, Fire And Rain, Country Road, How Sweet It Is, Sweet Baby James, Shower The People You Love With Love.

4.Blood Sweat And Tears: Hi- De- Ho

I also have a walking list or workout list if you will. A little sped up to give the momentum for walking speed. Maybe will put it up in a little bit.

A little trivia challenge for you guys. Now some of us older guys probably know the answer to this than most. Blood Sweat And Tears did this song and became a great hit. Hi De Ho. There were two who co-wrote this song. One of them was G. Goffin. Who was the other very popular songwriter? Hurry, clock is ticking. I will wait to see if you might need a hint... Oh and no cheating. lol.

Okay, here is a chance for someone else to take the challenge. She wrote "Locomotion". Trying to keep it as difficult as I can without using the obvious. Come on guys don't let Lebo beat you. If still no answer, I will make it easier for ya.

I've been kicking around on Wikipedia and went to a site I found that tells of upcoming albums on CDs. Have you guys ever heard of Kraftwerk. They were like Pink Floyd with a Punk rock or new wave kind of flare(or maybe techno rock) I guess you could say. This month There will be releases of some of there works on CD. I remember the album Autobahn. I don't remember who loaned me the album to listen to. But, I remember that I liked them a lot.

Ok. Although Lebo practically gave it away, if you paid attention that is. I will give the last hint which should be the easiest. She wrote and sang "You've Got A Freind".

Well, it looks like Lebo has the answer. Her Name is Carole King. She has a had a string of hit songs that were done by famous musicians and groups. She and her ex-partner and husband G. Goffin were inducted in the Music Hall of Fame for songwriting. Her most famous contribution was the album "Tapestry" with such songs as "You've Got A Friend", "IFeel The earth Move", " You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman". Tapestry held at the top of the most albums sold for about six years until Micheal Jackson stellar album "Thriller". Tapestry sod over 20 Million albums worldwide. Carole not only sang and played Piano, but, she also had a few acting jobs. Appearing on such shows as The Gilmore Girls playing Sophie the music store owner. She starred a lotal of 3 times. She also sang the theme song along with her daughter, "Where You Lead". To learn more about her go to Wikipedia. On an unusual note, Carol and her ex partner wrote the original opening music for "I dream Of Jeanie" before Hugo Martinegos take on the shows opening music that of course would become the most recognisable piece. So there you go. Like it? Want more useless music trivia? Just say so.

I know very little about Kraftwerk. I've heard some of their stuff and it's okay.

Actually I think they were a German rock group. Many German music go un-noticed. Yeah, Autobahn was the only album I've ever listen to of them.
