    One of my professors played keyboard in a small jazz band in Minneapolis that was produced by Prince. He said they never saw him once, but they had steady gigs, a space to rehearse and a decent pay check each month. Everything was done thru a third party that said Prince wanted to have a jazz band "ready."

    How about a 21-gun salute for Erg! Congratulations on 3 weeks without the smokes!

    Rage Against the Machine. Always great when you're in that anti-establishment kinda mood.

    For a little levity, here's the MasterCard ad that never quite made it to TV. Makes me laugh every time.

    Their earlier tweets are pretty corny and tone-deaf. But, to be fair, they say that delivery is 90% of comedy, and DiGiorno doesn't do delivery.

    Wow, so many apologies in a row; it's like he's in the Cal-zone!

    Going with something a little different tonight.

    I hope stillfedup will forgive me for taking his idea, but music is timeless, and one song always seems to link us into another. Here's one of my favorite covers of Jimi Hendrix' "Little Wing", done by the great Stevie Ray Vaughn. His guitar licks were hotter than the Texas asphalt that spawned him, and he was yet…
