Louis CK, my new favorite comedian (superceding Jake Johansen). I love his take on parenthood. Check out his new HBO special "Shameless". Honest, inappropriate and hysterical. He's been around for years, was a head writer for "The Chris Rock Show", but I really only sat down and listened this past week.
Not your parents' blog. Unless you're one of my daughters, in which case you're in big trouble.
Current Interweb Obsession - Wolfgang's Vault
Wolfgang's Vault is essentially a rock memorabilia store with one fantastic draw. The Concert Vault is a wonderful collection of good to sublime quality live recordings of most of the major classic rock bands, plus a relatively strange smattering of popular (Duran Duran), and not so popular (Wishbone Ash) acts from the mid 60's through the mid 80's. All the recordings are available for streaming and many include excellent write ups that help to set the scene for the concerts. Children of the 80's will note a good percentage of bands from that era, including Culture Club, A Flock of Seaguls, The Cure, and Billy Idol who are not ordinarily spoken of in "great live band" conversations (at least not mine).

I'm a huge Lous CK fan myself, Lucky Louie's cancellation was like a dagger to the chest. Not sure if you signed the petition, but keep hope alive...
