The first post...

Ok, here it is. The first post. I wanted to write something witty and memorable to commemorate my entrance into the world of blogging. I mean, you only get one chance to write a first post, so there's a lot of pressure not to screw it up.

But then I started thinking about it, and not many people know this site exists yet. Plus, as soon as I write a second post, it's just going to push the first post down out of the spotlight. So it's really not a big deal.

Instead, I'm just going to do what bloggers do and post a few links and make a few comments and call myself a journalist. Ok, here goes:

I have to admit, President Bush gained a few approval points in my eyes when I learned he uses an Ipod (referred to as Ipod One). At first I thought CNN was overanalyzing a bit when they claimed Bush "bares his soul" with the contents of Ipod One's playlists. But when you think about it, the music a person listens to can say a lot about who they are. Below is a sample of the playlist. I'll let you judge for yourself:

*We Are the Champions – Queen
*I Drink Alone – George Thorogood
*Killing an Arab – The Cure
*White Christmas – Bing Crosby
*Working 9 to 5 – Dolly Parton
*Rapture – Blondie
*Dallas Theme – Television's Greatest Hits
*Jesus Hold My Hand – John Ashcroft
*The Winner Takes it All – ABBA

The full playlist was released by The White House, and can be found here.

Elyas,

Do you know anything about the song Killing an Arab or what the lyrics are?

Just wondering.

Adios,

Nathan

Nathan,

I'm not sure, I've never heard the song. But I think I should clarify something: That's not the actual playlist. I set up the post with a sample, and the punchline was supposed to be the White House link, which goes to www.whitehouse.org, a satire site that created a satirical Ipod playlist.

I was worried that the post wasn't clear enough, but I didn't want to say it was satire beforehand.
