A Canadian musician has become an Internet sensation after posting a song on YouTube about United Airlines breaking his guitar.

Dave Carroll's video for the song "United Breaks Guitars" was posted on site earlier this week and has received more than 600,000 hits by Thursday evening.

"I was thinking I'd definitely get some action on (YouTube) because the song has been resonating so well with audiences as I've been performing it, but I didn't know it would take off like this," Carroll said.

Carroll, a guitarist for the pop-rock group Sons of Maxwell, has since been fielding calls for appearances around the world, including a call from the Oprah Winfrey show Thursday.

Fried to a crisp . . . Try again tomorrow

For some reason, I slept poorly for the second night in a row.

I spent the day at a training at the state government campus in Albany.

That meant I got to listen to part of Bernard Cornwell's "Agincourt.

I owe a number of e-mails to a number of people.

I will get to them tomorrow.

Love you guys!
