Richard Bona and Bobby McFerrin


For some dumb reason, I can't get today's picture out of my phone... so here's a youtube video I found on Troels Folmann's blog... such beautiful musical souls...

quick note:


To the lady in the dirty white Ford P.O.S. with New Jersey license plates on 90 West this morning -- you're a menace. I watched you zig-zag across 4 lanes of rush-hour traffic for literally FIFTEEN MINUTES so that you could get ONE CAR AHEAD OF ME BEFORE YOU GOT TO YOUR EXIT. Get off the road you idiot.

bye bye little white cups


This is my last one... Yesterday I convinced the powers-that-order-supplies at Midway to stop ordering styrofoam cups (unhealthy for the user, take a long time to biodegrade, bad for the environment) and purchase recycled paper cups. The discussion took about 2 minutes. They'd been ordering them for so long, they'd never considered anything different. Paper cups are not ideal, but it's a start.

Next campaign -- convince Midway to get everyone a mug.

small town marquee


same town, about 50 feet down the street from the Krap-o-rama... in case you can't read it:

"Jazz for an Afternoon
Terry Waldo and the Gutbucket Syncopaters"

small town shopping


in Bucyrus, Ohio for Thanksgiving, and saw this storefront in a nearby town. The name says it all... I thought I should at least let Mackey know, so next time he's visiting the folks back in Ohio, he can check it out...
