Start to finish, probably my favorite Pearl Jam album.

Admittedly these 2 Cellos guys are cheesy European-types, but if you like the cello and rock they are incredible.
Cheesy, but highly amusing. And they have legitimate chops.

Thanks for legitimizing my thoughts, because when I look at these guys I think “David Hasselhoff.”

My daughter gave birth to a perfect baby boy last night!! Life! Whenever I think of living a life, Louis Armstrong comes to mind. He embodied the living breathing unpredictability of life. Who knew such greatness could come from an orphan who grew up black and poor on the Streets of New Orleans? We know now.

Congratulations!!! I can’t wait to be a grandfather.
BTW, I was given a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 10 year Rye whiskey. I broke it out in celebration tonight. It’s at the bottom of a ridiculously expensive line of whiskeys. Worth it? Probably not, but…so good. Not too far off from my stereo (except my stereo is worth, to me, 10 times more than what I paid). I tell a select few what I have invested in my stereo and they can’t imagine.
