A Crock of Schmidt

Single-handedly solving nothing

My Life Is A Song #112

August 20, 2021 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

I remember this song and not much more than that. There’s no witty anecdote to pair with it. No life-changing experience for which it served as soundtrack. I never owned it or dubbed it off the radio or made any concerted effort to purposefully hear it. It was just a song. It was undoubtedly popular. […]

My Life Is A Song #108

December 7, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

So much of this series is grounded in my past.  Makes sense, I guess.  I mean, it would be pretty incredible for me to relate a musical yarn from the future, unpublished song included.  I’m nostalgic, not magical.  But there is a pronounced bias in my writing towards my distant past, and that concerns me.  […]

My Life Is A Song #107

November 30, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

I didn’t truly understand that teachers are real people until I had school-aged children of my own.  During my entire youth, teachers weren’t so much people as they were a spectrum of Sapiens-like humanoids crafted specifically for employ in the educational field.  It rarely, if ever, dawned on me that they were regular people just […]

My Life Is A Song #106

If you’ve followed this series, you know country music is my guilty pleasure.  And by country music I mean classic country, not the twangy pop rock that passes for country music nowadays.  The good, old stuff, mostly from the seventies, with a bit of early eighties and late sixties tossed in for flavour.  It’s the […]

My Life Is A Song #105

August 10, 2018 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Since I’m on a roll with this, there are plenty more songs I don’t like.  As is the case with most people, I guess, despite what self-proclaimed “lovers of music” would have you believe.  Hell, there are entire genres I despise.  No, it’s not rap, though that is an excellent, and close, guess.  Jazz is […]

My Life Is A Song #104

March 16, 2018 by acrockofschmidt 1 Comment

In My Life Is A Song #103, I abused you with a song I don’t much like.  I thought that was an interesting twist on the established modus operandi of this blog series so why the hell not roll with it.  Here’s another song I don’t like.  In fact, this is one I loathe.  I […]
