Hello there internet friend, my name is Joe Hoffman.

Initially I found this to be a pleasant random juxtaposition; however, after some analysis, I think there’s something more to it. Call me crazy, but there is some kind of musical kinship between Journey’s “Any Way You Want It” and Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart”.</p> <p>Below is a YouTube video for each song. Am I nuts? I don’t think so…</p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AAd39YB7YI&feature=related">Journey -<em> Any Way You Want It</em></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XUmbhGEO3I&feature=related">Joy Division - <em>Love Will Tear Us Apart</em></a></p>http://tumble.joehoffman.net/post/816676704http://tumble.joehoffman.net/post/816676704Thu, 15 Jul 2010 16:39:49 -0500<a href="http://store.theonion.com/product/the-onn-android-app,353/">The Onion News Network Android App</a>: <p>Oh, hell yes!</p>http://tumble.joehoffman.net/post/808966469http://tumble.joehoffman.net/post/808966469Tue, 13 Jul 2010 21:14:20 -0500<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l5fang1mbh1qz4xauo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Went to the Minneapolis airport dog park today.
