This actually played on Thursday night, and I typed it up to get ahead knowing that I might not get to post on Friday, but when I actually had time, the CO detector started going off, and the fire department kept coming because the alarm company kept calling them.
Finally, a ladder company came to join the two engine companies, neither of which had a CO detector. Of course, the ladder company’s CO detector didn’t work, but since we were all still alive, we decided that it was a malfunction.
Anyways, since I typed this on Thursday, and am posting it on Saturday, I think that still averages out to become a Friday Random Ten, and an interesting one at that…

“Drivin on 9” is an Ed’s Redeeming Quality’s song originally, a band well worth looking into. Nobody beat them at funny-catchy when they were together.
I’d not heard of Ed’s Redeeming Quality. I’ll have to check them (him?) out.
