all in the mood for a melody

I've been meaning to recommend this since forever. Just the kind of thing where I felt I should have it sandwiched in between two deep, meaningful posts discussing existential matters. Since I'm a bit low on that, I figured I'd just run with it now.

From the internet version of the hipster magazine McSweeney's, the link to a very funny piece by otherwise quite obnoxious comedian Michael Ian Black:

"What I would be thinking about if I were Billy Joel driving toward a holiday party where I knew there was going to be a piano."

If that doesn't make you want to read it, I don't know what to tell you.
