Heh, heh! That story of the bull in the grocery store is great!

You know darned well Hannity will find a way to weasel out of this. As my buddy Jack pointed out, that whole crew over at Faux Noise are a bunch of cowards who finagled their way out of military service, but they're perfectly willing to send others out to do their duty for them.

It's great to see that Leonard Cohen still has it. Oh, and by the way, this year is the 50th anniversary of the Newport Folk Festival, and to celebrate, George Wein is bringing back some of the original line-up - Pete Seeger and Joan Baez, as well as folk stalwarts Arlo Guthrie and Judy Collins. It's gonna be a great summer here in Newport!
