YouTube Friday-The Guess Who - Dancin' Fool
Here is a video of a song I like from The Guess Who. I saw this video on cooldudebailey's YouTube Channel after hearing this song on Canadian Radio. This is one of the Guess Who's many hits. I especially like the cover of the album that's pictured here.

iPad Ads are everywhere
I've seen these iPad 2 ads around town recently, the first time a few months ago. This isn't the first time an ad has been placed here. There have been ads for mostly TV shows here in the past. The other ad for the iPad 2 was on 1001 Woodward in downtown Detroit. I've seen one of these iPads in the store, and I can see using it for educational or business purposes. If you have an iPad, what do you use it for (business, personal,etc)?

YouTube Friday: YOU BELONG TO THE CITY
This week's YouTube Friday is of a song I really enjoy. It's from QBAN2010's YouTube Channel. The song is from the old Miami Vice TV show, called "You Belong to the City". I know it screams "Oldies", but I can imagine walking along the street in the '80s while listening to this song and enjoying '80s nightlife and the city scenes.

RIP Jim Northrup (1939-2011)
I heard during last night's Tiger game that former Tigers outfielder Jim Northrup had passed. He's known for hitting multiple Grand Slams, including a few during the 1968 World Series. He was also a broadcaster on the old Pass Sports network. The picture I'm using here is of Jim Northrup's exhibit at Comerica Park in the "Walk of Fame" exhibit from the '60s.

Come To Me - France Joli (1979)
Today's YouTube Friday entry is a video from the channel of djbuddyloveoldschool's YouTube Channel. It's of the singer France Joli's song "Come to Me" from 1979. I heard this song on the radio the other day, and it's a danceable song. It still sounds great after 32 years.
