Hey Gang,

Ever associate a New Wave song to something your doing at the time? I found out I have a mouse living in my attic tonight. So here I am scouring around the house looking for where I put the damn mouse traps humming Rat in the Kitchen by UB40. It came to me soon as I realized there was a mouse up there and havent been able to get the song out of my head since! No I didnt find them, but my wife was shaking her head at me cause she knew the song.

Anyone else ever have a NW song pop into your head that corresponded with the situation at hand?

Last week, on my birthday, the Altered Images "Happy Birthday" song popped into my head, so I sang the song and did the new wave dance that Clare Grogan did to the song in the video!

After the election was over I cheered my wife up by popping "The Bottom Line" by BAD on her mp3 player. She dug it[;)]
