Rest In Peace Mix Tape (1980-2006)

The Mix Tape, which came to prominence late in the last century and provided hours of entertainment to countless drivers and Walkman users, died Saturday. He was 26.

Officials say the cause of death appears to be neglect, though they have not ruled out foul play. Police have identified Apple CEO Steve Jobs as a "person of interest" in the case.

The Mix Tape has no surviving relatives. His parents, Eight Track and Beta Tape, died when he was a child.

What I fondly remember about good ol' Mix was his hardware. The little screws in his corners that used to rattle around as I held up my tape with pride, shaking it to the music heavens and exclaiming, "Haza! a mix well made..."

I'm creating a mix tape, in my head. Full of stuff she'd like. And for the first time. I can see how.

Bring back the blog!
