SUNDAY APRIL 28 2013
Conan was the headliner.. but it wasn’t the first time that Conan O’Brien performed for journalists and the President at the dinner.. the last time was in 1995 when a very young O’Brien mocked Bill Clinton (Before Monica Lewinsky) -
Melancholy Sunday to all
Sunday was never my favorite day of the week.. as a matter of fact, there have been times I absolutely hated it. There is something magically lonely about the thoughts of a Sunday morning–perhaps that is best exemplified by Kris Kristofferson’s SUNDAY MORNING COMING DOWN (even more so when performed by the late Johnny Cash) ..
So on a day when you wake up, feeling melancholy and a little out of sorts, the best thing to do may be to put on Cash’s version of the song, all about waking up Sunday morning, walking through a neighborhood resounding with church bells and being filled with an aroma of frying chicken.. or you can listen to Anna Kendrick. Thanks to my wife Tara this morning, it was the “CUPS” that suddenly got stuck in my head..
Picture Anytown, USA, a diner in the middle of no where, filled with a singing staff and dancing crowd. It sounds too good to be true because it is too good to be true.. but it’s a creative video and a song that will become a part of your whistling and humming for hours to come. -
Watching my son grow
Haircut weekend..Long to…Short
It’s an amazing thing, this fatherhood thing.
Every day I am reminded by headlines and stories that this world is scary.. But I look at my son and realize that it’s all FOR something, there is a purpose, and there is something called love. And it’s real.Hope you’re all having a fantastic weekend..
