We just got back from a mission trip to México.  On our way down there, we hit a big rainstorm in the Mexican desert between Saltillo and General Cepeda, Coahuila.  The car following ours had the radio tuned to a Mexican station, and Adam said they played more than one song (in English) about rain during the storm.  Here's a short video clip with Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head on the radio (you can see our van in front):

Back sometime in the mid-1990s one January I had just turned onto I-95 to head back to Durham for another semester of law school. Turned on the radio and heard the opening chords of "Highway to Hell." Seldom have I heard a song timed more perfectly.
"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

i have listened to "Ramblin Man" more than once while on US41, and 2 weekends ago, i was walkin around the US41-US45 interchange being built in oshkosh, and when i got back to my car, "Ramblin Man" was playing, while i waqs only yards away from US41...
"Oshkosh"- "Oh, you mean like 'Oshkosh BGosh'?"

I often hear Ozzy's "Mama I'm Coming Home" when I'm on my way home on a roadtrip - pretty much never otherwise, which qualifies as bizarre. My most infamous one was "Relax (Don't Do It)" right before I did a traffic maneuver that got me stopped - if I ever hear that song again I'm just going to stop the car until it's over.

Olive Garden must be stopped.  I must stop them.

Don't @ me. Seriously.
