Song of the Day: Black Lab - Say Goodbye
Why do so many Black Lab songs have so much meaning to me? They touch my heart. Sometimes they apply to my present, other times to past points in my life. And undoubtedly will continue to speak to me and for me long into the future.

Word of the Day
- DEFINITION
noun
: a native or resident of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan — used as a nickname
- EXAMPLES
The land of the Yoopers—the Upper Peninsula, or U.P.—is connected to Michigan's Lower Peninsula by means of the Mackinac Bridge.
"Every Yooper I've ever met was an uncommonly unique character—a real salt-of-the-earth townie, skilled at mechanics, deer hunting, and/or ice fishing." — Kelly O, The Stranger, January 29, 2014 – February 4, 2014

- DID YOU KNOW?
The word "Yooper" comes from the common nickname of Michigan's Upper Peninsula—the "U.P."—and the etymology requires the same follow-up question that a challenging joke does: "Get it?" If you're not there yet, try saying them both out loud: Yooper, U.P. Yoopers have been saying both out loud now for about 40 years, but it's only in recent years that those beyond the U.P. and its geographical neighbors have begun to encounter "Yooper" in use. Yoopers refer to people who live in the Lower Peninsula as "trolls" (they live "under" the Mackinac Bridge, after all), but that nickname is still at this point too regional for entry in our dictionaries.
Song of the Day: DIIV - Doused
Takes me back the late 80's or so. Great mood in this song.
