I was about two-thirds of the way into a very, very long post about the Speedies, old pals of mine whose single “Let Me Take Your Photograph” is now being featured prominently (after a remix) in a commercial for HP that’s been getting a lot of airtime. And in typical fashion, I accidentally leaned too hard on some damn button or touchpoint or something on my friggin’ laptop keyboard, and the whole damn thing disappeared. I’d like to reconstruct it, and I will…but not now. For one thing, there’s a pretty gosh darn exciting tennis match taking place right now (Blake leads Agassi two sets to one, holy cow), and for another, I need to think about sleep soon.
Damn laptops, I hate the stupid things, at least the IBM variety. I will get back to this, though, because hearing that unexpected sound from my past every few minutes during this last week of US Open coverage is weirding me out in all kinds of ways.
