Blinded by the Light

So the Christmas Season came to end yesterday so, as every 6th day of the year is, 1/6/2016 was Epiphany.  And, as it was 1/6/16 is was a numerically nice day as well.  Dressed in my Light Bulb tie (so I could see the light as the Wise Men did on Epiphany) I had a great day at work (a lot of meetings, but they were productive) and then spent the late afternoon/evening watching Middle School basketball (which is always a good time as well!)  I am taking the suggestion of my office mate for my Song of the Day.  Blinded by the Light, sung by Manfred Mann's Earth Band.  I did not know it was the only #1 Hot 100 Hit by Bruce Springsteen as a Song Writer.  I also did not know that the band set a Hot 100 record for the longest time between #1 hits (Mann also hit #1 with "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" in 1964).  That's another great song, maybe for another day but, for tonight, I will focus on the Light of Epiphany and the Light of Manfred Mann.  The video is a little trippier than I would like, personally, but the song is, without dispute, one of the great ones!  Hope your days were as BRIGHT as mine!
