The inability to handle caffeine is, I am sure, a sign of aging. One of the first ones. A few years ago, I pretty much had to stop drinking coffee after 3 in the PM or I wouldn't sleep well. Which was tough, because I really loved that afternoon cup of joe.

i don't know if i'd say it's the most underrated, but it's always been one of my favorites. i'd probably go with "The Rain Song" or "That's the Way" for most underrated, off the top of my head. also, "The Rover."



on another note, i'm not sure if i should be worried about my digestive system or my diet because i have to take a dump about a half hour after every meal i eat.

After a week of getting up at 6am, sleeping until 7.30 feels slothful, but oh so good.

actually, this is probably not only their most overrated song, but their only song that's overrated. it's just the most overrated song of all time, which kind of overshadows how underrated the rest of their catalogue is as a whole.

maybe D'Yer Mak'er is overrated. i dunno. it doesn't really matter. every one of their first six albums is rock and roll canon.

My favorite Zep song is the one with the piano break in the middle that reminds me of "Linus and Lucy"

So DirectTV doesn't work in a tropical storm. Thank god this is today, and not tomorrow when I get to experience the glories of Sunday Ticket from my own couch. Also, if this storm wanted to move along so I can watch some college football this afternoon, I'd appreciate it.

Love that song. It shows one of my favorite things in Zep songs, which was Bonham's ability to play totally awesome (yet still fairly easy) drum parts in slower songs. He just had an incredible feel for a guy who could also wail like a wild animal.

Also, I think "Night Flight" is a way underrated Zep song.

I'm pretty goddamn amped up for this Miami game tonight. I'm actually afraid to watch it at a bar as I can see myself easily getting into a fight with someone who is cheering for Florida/against Miami.
