CLAP FOR THE WOLFMAN? Philadelphia radio station WXPN has a regular feature called "5 at 5:00" in which the station plays five songs organized around a particular theme at 5:00 PM. Often but not always, the theme is taken from an event in the current news.

Yesterday, the theme was the pending resignation of Paul Wolfowitz. The station played these songs:

  1. Will The Wolf Survive? -- Los Lobos
  2. Girlfriend Is Better -- Talking Heads
  3. Espresso Love -- Dire Straits
  4. Scooby Snacks -- Fun Lovin' Criminals
  5. Resignation Superman -- Big Head Todd & the Monsters

Ironically enough, the next song the station played was Good Excuse by the John Butler Trio.

I have to believe that we can come up with a better list of songs than that!
