I would like to thank www.pandora.com for providing wonderful background music to my sweeping, dusting, kitchen cleanup and folding laundry chores tonight. A special thanks to Mr. Billy Joel. "New York State of Mind" is always inspiring and hauntingly beautiful! :wink:

    If you do it right, cleaning sure as heck is an exercise.
