It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black.

I saw 69 Seconds Later at Murphy's Lounge, opening for Gutpunch Myself. It was pretty lame actually
The sun will rise in #Boston #Massachusetts tomorrow at 6:48, 69 seconds later than the day before.
It will set at 16:15, 31 seconds earlier than the day before.

an answer for anyone who wondered: "where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?"
Yankee legend Joe DiMaggio was airbrushed out of the photo (taken at an Old Timer’s Day) used as the record sleeve art for Terry Cashman’s “Willie, Mickey & The Duke - Talkin’ Baseball” because he doesn’t appear in the lyrics.

holy sh!t, how have I never seen this among the floods of packaged SNL highlights? This is astonishing. His *entrance* alone makes you sit upright.
Goodbye Jimmy Cliff. His vocal in this 1976 SNL performance, good lord---one of the best singers of his generation, of any generation. vimeo.com/155135842

getting down with some mellow Rhodes-based Guaraldi I'm not familiar with. (It's the theme from 1972's You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown, which somehow escaped rerun-every-year status.) Do I really *have* to go to work in 13 hours?
