    A few years back my wife picked up a used media server she thought we could use. A couple weeks ago I finally cracked it open and found that it contains, among other things, all the Billboard top 100 songs for every year from 1968 to 2008.

    I threw all those ~4K songs (some are repeats) into a playlist and have been sitting through it.

    Did you know that the Irish Rivers recorded a version of Shel Silverstein’s “The Unicorn” set to music and it was, apparently, a big hit? The past really is a foreign country.
