Earbuds Are Dangerous

Cause I'm sitting here at work rocking out to The Beatles and I am in much danger (there's that word again) of starting to sing out loud and make a fool out myself. For those of you following along at home, that would be a bigger fool out of myself. It's weird though. When I play music through the speakers on my desk I have never had this problem. But the earbuds apparently make the music too immediate, to personal, or something. Or it may be that I just really needed to catch a little Beatlemania right now.

Oh wait, no, I just realized what happened here. I queued up some Beatles this morning when I got in. Then later I was reading a complete stranger(who is apparently the friend of an incomplete stranger)'s blog and he mentioned going back in time to witness the British Invasion. And then I started to imagine it too. And then my Beatles selections started playing. And then I started with the false memories and damn it, why did they break up? Was it really Yoko?

Hmmm, Tripp may have been more right than he knew about the lack of time travellers as evidence against time travel. But it's not so much that The Beatles appearance on Ed Sullivan would have going to be packed with future voyeurs, but that I don't recall seeing a crowd of thirty, forty, fifty, sixty and seventy year olds creeping it up at my high school prom. Of course, I don't remember anything even remotely interesting happening at my prom, so that might explain that. I'd never go back in time for that. At least not until Alzheimer's claims my brain. And then I'll be no danger to the time-space continuum anyhow.

Not that I believe in time anyhow.
