Blog Jammin’: Changing of the Guard

Well, it’s been quite a week so far with Obama winning the Democratic nomination (go Barack!) and the passing of one of Rock’s true innovators and pioneers, Bo Diddley.  Not to mention, the birthday of my lovely wife on Tuesday and our second wedding anniversary today!  I am an extremely happy and lucky man.

And with the dreams of America’s regime change inching ever-closer to becoming reality, here’s my little photo tribute to the men and women in the Armed Forces who have been putting their lives on the line to protect our ways of life.  Hopefully we’ll soon get someone in office who won’t risk their lives frivolously and as a means to support their owns’ greed.  AND I couldn’t resist taking the pic when I saw these guys sitting at a table in Little Italy.

So here’s some stuff to check out…

Speaking of photos, check this out, it’s really cool but it may just jerk a tear or two.

BO……DIDDLEY! Thank you and rest in peace.

R.E.M. recently rocked “Ignoreland” for the first time.

Leaked Vampire Weekend demo performed by their keyboard player (and mastermind).  Be sure to look at all the comments.

Oh yeah, more great Diddley on NPR’s Monitor Mix!

Shameless plug...it looks good if I get some clicks on my articles.
