(I could swear that I MOGged this song before, but Google says I didn't...and, well, it's certainly worth hearing again.)

I'm sure I'm tapping into some fragile place in my childhood when I start adding boxed sets of cartoons to my Netflix queue. I've started watching Rocky and Bullwinkle, Warner Brothers, and "The Muppet Show" all over again, signaling my deep understanding that I could always use a good laugh.

And, frankly, these shows are far more intelligent than most comedy today.

So I desperately needed an episode of "The Muppet Show" last night. During the course of the day, I had paid all of my bills.

Set up a new regular donation to my local Tibetan Buddhist center.

Renewed my lease.

Tinkered with the finances.

Applied to Penn.

Which meant I had to update the resume.

And write a personal statement.
