Hey! Have you peeped the web series "Yacht Rock" yet? No? Well, everybody in my small world has been giving me shit for not watching every low-budge, high impact episode. So today I decided to check it out...something good/problem happened.
I'm writing this post from a wifi connection at a Bruegger's Bagels in West Omaha. Why am I here? I don't know - the coffee is horrible and the bagels are... well... they're freakin' Bagels - you'd have to be a neophyte of mankind to jack up a Bagel too bad.
Anywho, I decided to watch the 1st episode of "Yacht Rock" a minute ago - the series that delves deeply into the stories behind the smooth groove music popularized in the late eighties by such glorious musicians as Loggins & Messina, Hall & Oats, Michael McDonald and many, many more.
The 1st episode tells the story behind Michael McDonald's impetus for his masterpiece "What a Fool Believes." The minute I peeled my eyes from the episode my brain nearly exploded due to the fact that "What a Fool Believes" began to play on the Bruegger's Bagel Sound System. No joke.
It all makes sense now.

I've always wondered if that song was about Kenny Loggins being a full-on Summer's Eve type. Thanks, Hollywood Steve!
Not to split gray hairs, but those folks were most potent -- in their mild-mannered way -- in the late '70s, not the late '80s. Some of us innertubers are old enough to remember the atrocities.
Thanks David.correction noted.
