HEY! Over here on the left.

This is not a music blog.

It is a blog about me, David Ocker.

But most of me IS about music.

    Mixed Meters celebrates its Susquicentennial

    (Prescript: If you're reading this because you searched Google for "Susquicentennial" try this search instead for the correct spelling. You'll get hundreds of thousands of hits. Don't make my mistake and find out too late that the word is actually spelt "sesquicentennial" "Sesqui" is a prefix which means "one and a half." Read about Mixed Meters' Bi-Sesquicentennial posting here.)

    I now return you to my original posting ...

    Even Leslie, who is not Mixed Meters' most regular reader, said "It's been more than three days." So here's a quick and easy posting - the 150th in Mixed Meters history.

    on how to train your cat to use the toilet.

    And here's a talking cat video.
