Prince at Coachella

Prince performing Creep by Radiohead. The video is crap, but the audio is great. This is just as good, if not better, than his cover of the Foo Fighters at the Super Bowl a few years ago.

Never Settle

My friend, Stacey, and I had dinner tonight to catch up on the events in our lives. I complained to her that she hasn't written in her blog since January! "But I just posted last week," she said. And, it's well worth reading, so I'm passing along this link to you. I wholeheartedly agree with her response to the "Marry Him!" article in the Atlantic Monthly.

Huckabee on Obama

This is probably the only time that I admit that Mike Huckabee is right.

Evan's First Birthday

I spent the best weekend in Waukegan, Illinois, celebrating my nephew's birthday. Some people think that he won't remember that I was there, but I know better. That kids smart, just like his sisters. If he's anything like Megan, the oldest, he will have a memory like an elephant. So much has changed in the last month since I saw him. A month ago, he was standing and attempting to walk. Now, you have to catch him before he reaches the open gate at the stairs to the second floor of my sister's house. The girls, Megan and Erin, love their little brother and it's so great to see all three of them interact with each other. Even though they are 4.5 years apart, I think they get along and play very well together. They remind me of the early relationship between me and my sister. Our difference in ages is 5.5 years. My sister was always gracious and generous with her time and her friends, letting her little sister tag along. I hope that Megan and Erin continue to have a solid sisterly relationship.

A potentially bad idea

I know a lot of people have issues with American Airlines, but I've had pretty good luck, so far. I was affected by the FAA inspections at the end of last week. I was in the NYC area for work and my return flight to St. Louis was canceled. The person on the reservation line was very helpful and all of the flight attendants and ticket agents were extra friendly. It was a pain in the ass, but what are you going to do?

And, then, I read this story on the merger of Delta and Northwest. I think this is a bad idea. Won't this merger drive up airfares even higher? We'll have less choices, right?
