Watching MTV...

It seems like it's been 20 years since I've bothered to watch MTV. I have no patience for reality shows or other crap of that kind. But the German came to grab me and we are watching Metallica live at Rock am Ring. I saw them in New York about 15 years ago, taking my best girl friend, and she was so mad at me! She spent the evening shoving napkins into her ears while I was getting neck lash from thrashing my head back and forth. The German is moaning that we didn't meet for another few years so that we could have gone together. I just showed him this post over at Sweet Juniper and it cracks me up t realize that he has been singing along with this song, one of his favorites, for years and only after reading this "children's book" has he acyually understood all the words! He wants me to print it out and put it up in either the children's room, or, more likely, ours.

My German loves Metallica too... maybe they are the same generation. Rock am Ring!! Cool!

I'm not a big MTV fan (or VH1 for that matter), but my husband loves that crap. If there's absolutely nothing on TV, he'll be sure to flip the channels there. No matter how much I can't stand the show... I find myself bee bopping to the music.
