Well, I 'm back. Posting has been kind of a low priority lately, due to a killer bout of the shingles. And no, I don't mean the kind on top of your house. Google it. Or, you know, just click back <------ there. I'm not all the way over it, but at least I can wear a shirt now without wanting to kill myself.
Anyhoo, I was listening to some stuff from my iTunes library the other day to take my mind off the thousands of little knives being poked into my skin, and I came across a choice tune called "Super Buck Jazz OC Remix". Now I kind of have a "THING" for jazz remixes of Mario tunes, so I was all over this one. Plus, it features the melody from Super Mario Bros 2, a criminally underrated entry in the Mario canon, IMHO. I loved that game for its quirkiness. I mean, you threw vegetables at the bad guys, the Princess could float, even Luigi was useful! I don't know what it was about the second entries in the Mario and Zelda series, but they were both pretty big departures from the established formula. They just so happen to be some of the most challenging and fun games in the series to me.
