Listen Like FITS

Almost as popular as our blog posts (okay, okay … more popular than our blog posts)  is a little wasted advertising space over in the sidebar that we like to call “Today’s Tuneage.”

It’s basically the FITS jukebox, where we expose your eardrums to our diverse and eclectic musical palette, which as you can see is comprised of rap, pop, soul, industrial, reggae, jam, funk, classic, eighties and alternative selections.

Basically, we listen to everything except “country” – because country isn’t music, it’s inbred noise.

“Sounds like … cats humping each other,” our founding editor says. “Well except for that Rascal Flatts guy. I like him.”

Anyway, we’re often asked if we’ve ever used a particular song for our “Today’s Tuneage” feature and until recently, the answer has always been … “huh? what?”

Which interestingly enough is our answer for a lot of things around here.

Well, last month we started keeping track …
