Melodious Thunk

OK time for a break. Take the 10 minutes and sit back and listen/watch the great Thelonious Monk with his quartet. I love the fact that this stuff is out there for us to watch for the 1st time.

Dylan's Tell Tale Signs


My incredibly informed brother alerted me to the new Bob Dylan release that arrives next Tuesday the 7th. And NPR is offering up free streaming of the 2 CD set. "Tell Tale Signs" is a compilation of some of his most compelling live performances over the past 20 years. Follow the link and stream while you work, or over your Sunday paper.

The Story of a SIgn


My friend Jane sent me this link this morning to a short film from the Cannes Film Festival. Before diving into my typical day of madness, I took the 5 minutes to watch it, and was glad I did. As readers of this blog know, I get caught up in all the insanity of politics, probably too often, but this film made me stop and think about all I have to be thankful for. Please watch it and maybe it will brighten your day as much as it did mine!
