The Mary Hunter has completed his “music meme game” post, and while I’ll probably just let folks list theirs in trackbacks, TMH not only made time in a very busy schedule, he also included some pieces that really brought a smile to my ear (if I may be allowed to severely mangle a metaphor—heck, whether I’m allowed to or not! Zelda B.’s not standing over my shoulder to correct me… ).
