It seems that my pages on caffeine addiction, uneducated though they are, have caught the attention of the CBC. I received an email asking me to contact a researcher for one of the CBC's TV shows yesterday. We chatted about what I'd written. I'm told to expect follow up from a producer for the show. Hmmmmm.

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little -- a movie song here or a TV ad there.
