The Only Way To Fly Is Die


Exit stage right. Richie Havens had what I always regarded as the finest performance of the penultimate music concert of maybe the last 300 years, that's all. Lost a good one today.

Watch it...

As A Matter Of Fact I Have Seen Him Before



I've had this for awhile, but now I gotta listen to it...

Montauk Monster

This little beauty found on a New York beach July 13 has been called an alien, a science experiment gone bad, even "how I imagine Karl Rove looks on the inside." Some dismiss it as an unfortunate decomposing pug or a turtle without a shell. I think it's the chupacabra.

Hachikō

Hachikō
In 1924, Hachikō was brought to Tokyo by his owner, Hidesamurō Ueno, a professor in the agriculture department at the University of Tokyo. During his owner's life, Hachikō saw him off from the front door and greeted him at the end of the day at the nearby Shibuya Station. Even after Ueno's death in May 1925, Hachikō returned every day to the station to wait for him. Hachikō's devotion to his lost master moved those around him, who nicknamed him "faithful dog". Others at the station initially thought he was waiting for something else or roaming around, but later realized he was waiting for his dead owner. This continued for 10 years, with Hachikō appearing only in the evening time, precisely when the train was due at the station.

While I'm gone for these next two weeks you think Dents will sit at this window and wait for me?

I do.
