Latest Song List

Something I haven't done in a while - I used to make mix tapes for myself or other people and give them suitably pretentious sounding titles taken from the lyrics of the debut song. That exercise kind of died after I switched exclusively to CD. But now, what I do is I make MP3 play lists that can fit on a CD. Here's the latest.

Edge of the Night

Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care
For the people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way
Of caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure

WB Reviving MacGyver?

The WB Network has ordered a pilot for an update of the old MacGyver TV series, entitled Young MacGyver, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The Paramount Network Television show will be executive produced by Henry Winkler, Stephen Downing and John Rich, the trade paper reported.

Young MacGyver will center on the adventures of MacGyver's nephew, who is brought into the fold of Phoenix Foundation, a think tank dedicated to righting wrongs and defeating bad guys throughout the world, the trade paper reported. Sam Baum is writing the script and will serve as a supervising producer on the pilot. Casting is under way for the show's lead.

The original MacGyver ran on ABC from 1985-92 and starred Richard Dean Anderson, who now stars in Stargate SG-1.
