Rome, Rome, Rome, Rome...

If we were still "IN school," today would be the day that I would have introduced myself as your guest lecturer, the famed rapper and historian Chi Cago. I  would cue up my megahit Rome, sing along to the lyrics up on the screen, and watch your faces as you stared in amazement and/or embarrassment. In past years, reactions have ranged from a group "What is happening...?!?" to a standing ovation. But I always enjoyed doing it, because, well, it was fun to make. A few hours writing lyrics, a few hours recording in my basement on GarageBand, and the rest is History (class). Today you get to hear it and follow along with the lyrics, even if I can't see your faces. Let it rain...
