"Return of the Mac"

As we were driving home from dinner tonight, something that we have not done in like three weeks, drive in our car that is, an American song came over the radio!  "Return of the Mac!"  Eric about wet his pants!  "Marcy, Marcy, ohhh, ohhh, listen to this! Just pretend, pretend that we are in a boat in the middle of Lake Michigan!  Ahhh...isn't it nice!"  Funny what songs can do to you and how they can make you feel like you are back at home instead of in a foreign country where it is 94 degrees at 8pm with 100% humidity!  Funny thing is he said that he doesn't even really like the song but just the familiarity of the song reminded him of home.  (Someone obviously misses home!)  Then as we were driving into our complex he all of the sudden just stops and parks the car.  I asked him what we were doing!  His reply, "Finishing the song!  If we drive under into the parking ground below the apartments we will lose the song!"  Like I was totally crazy to not want to finish listening to the whole song!  So...we sat there jamming and belting out, "Return of the Mac!"  If you don't recall the song, google it and listen, it will quickly come back to you! We can't wait to return to even a small thing like American music, funny I know!
