A lifetime ago, I knew a guy named Chris Jannuzzi. I worked with him at Logicat. I wrote software; he wrote content; we worked together. He was in a band. He was a <i>musician</i>. He might still be.<fn> I learned a lot about music from him, his deep love for James Brown and his band, for example. I first heard of Vince Guaraldi from him. Gained an appreciation for vodka gimlets, on the other. He gave me a song, once, that he and his band had written and recorded in the pretty amazing studio that he had in his basement in his home on Long Island. I don't know anybody else in the band, other than "Todd", of whom Jannuzzi told many ripping yarns. Todd was the drummer, a confirmed stoner and an all-around bon vivant and accidental philosopher. The song is on many of my favorite-song lists, as well as on those of my wife. It's really good. It's called "Sea Hag". <bq quote-style="none">Hello sailor, hello sailor, c'mon and wave your flag. C'mon and dance with, make romance with, a thousand-year--old sea hag.
