Your phone has more power than the "portable computers" available back when this song came out.
It was a challenge to make very simple driving games back then, Carmageddon was still a few years away.
Hang on while we dial up Compuserve if you had a PC, AOL (I think) if you had a MAC. 300 Baud modems were king

This is a great album.

This song is totally different than the rest of the album, but still a great tune to sing along to.

I always remember my brother, at a Breeders show, happily jumping up and down shouting "There's two of 'em!" re: Kim and Kelly. He was in love...

And our friend Jesse smoked pot with them on their bus.

On 9? must be to Poughkeepsie...or away from it ( would be better). :-)

 
{#Lol}  In my experience, Poughkeepsie does look much better in the rear view mirror.  US Route 9 in NYS does go through NYC and NJ - I think as far as Delaware - but I think she may be talking about Massachusetts Route 9 in in this tune, maybe not.  Good tune.

Me, too - sorta makes me slow down and breathe, and smile. And then breathe again and actually notice things like flowers, dragonflies, and cool breezes...  Reminds me of a simpler time when my brother and I were rattling down a country road in his ancient truck with the a.m. radio. We never knew what it would play, so we didn't bother to set the station. One day, we'd get something by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and another day, we'd get a radio talk show.  It was a Russian-Roulette radio.  If people wanted to get around us, my brother would just pull to the side and let them pass, and then he'd get back onto to road and we'd yup-yup along.  Good times...{#Sunny}
