An angel appears in a puff of smoke to a man and says to him, "Because you have lived a good life, I can offer you a gift: you can be the most handsome man in the world, or you can have infinite wisdom, or you can have limitless wealth." Reflecting, the man says, "I'll take the wisdom"
"Wisdom is yours," says the angel, disappearing in another puff. The smoke is barely clear before the man thinks, "I should have taken the money."

Almost Famous tribute quote: "They don't even know what it is to be a fan. To truly love some silly little piece of music so much that it hurts."

A guy finds his dog with the neighbors pet rabbit in its mouth
The rabbit is dead and the guy panics. He takes the dirty, chewed-up rabbit into the house. He gives it a bath, blow-dries its fur, and puts it back into the cage at the neighbor's house, hoping they will think it died of natural causes.
A few days later, the neighbor asks the guy, "Did you hear that Fluffy died?"
The guy stammers and says, "Um... no... what happened?"
The neighbor replies, "We found him dead in his cage one day, but the weird thing is that the day after we buried him, someone had dug him up, gave him a bath, and put him back into the cage. And now, weirdest of all: even though he's dead, his little left paw keeps moving back and forth, back and forth, back and forth."
The guy runs back to his house, digs through the shampoo he used when he washed the rabbit, and his worst fears are confirmed. Right there on the label: Permanent Wave For Damaged Hare.

These quotes are how I feel about music.
From Tom Petty: "Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things."
From Lou Rawls: "Music is the greatest communication in the world. Even if people don't understand the language that you're singing in, they still know good music when they hear it."
I am dedicating this next one to all the Sizzle Radio DJs. It's a quote from Chelsea Leyland: "The best thing about being a DJ is making people happy. There is nothing like seeing people get up from a table to dance or the expression on their face when they hear a song that they love. I also love to educate people on music they have never heard."
