Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp on Capitol Hill


Austin American Statesman June 19, 1987 by Seth Kantor An obscure Senate Agriculture subcommittee that normally doesn’t get a nickel’s worth of public attention had turnaway crowds Thursday when singers Willie Nelson and John Cougar Mellencamp testified on behalf of the nation’s struggling family farmers. Nelson said:  “In my state of Texas, 14,000 full-time farmers went out of business in the past year. “I’ve been singing and entertaining in 400 cities in the past two years, and I can s

Songs of Encouragement


“If” sung by Joni Mitchell If you can keep your head While all about your People are losing theirs and blaming you If you can trust yourself When everybody doubts you And make allowance for their doubting too. If you can dream And not make dreams your master If you think And not make intellect your game If you can meet With triumph and disaster And treat those two imposters just the same If you can fill the journey Of a minute With sixty seconds worth of wonder and delight Then The Earth is y


Frank Caliendo and Earth, Wind, and Fire to Headline 2009 Leukemia Ball


While my goal at the Dallas Redskins game at FedEx Field had been to get a photo of the John Madden himself (mission accomplished!), I can’t help but think part of my obsession with him has a bit to do with one hilarious man in particular: Frank Caliendo.  I confess, he’s one of the main reasons I watch Fox NFL Sunday’s Pre-Game Show.  This talented man does some of the best and most hysterical impressions on the planet and apparently, he’s getting paid to do them all over the planet.  (Pictu

to the end of the year ~ and the end of the year is winning. I have put my Chookyblue SCSS into the post today. Not as I had planned, but still with good will and Christmas wishes, I hope the recipient is happy. I spent last week in meetings, which seems to have become the routine; am moving offices; still learning my job; and trying to keep the powers that be happy; they keep pulling me off my project and wanting me to do other things ~ which could be good or bad ~ they seem to think well of me


When TV Advances Music


The new music-minded talk show, "Spectacle" Elvis Costello With..." won't premiere on Sundance Channel until Wednesday. But already it's had an effect in the recording world. His session with Jenny Lewis ended up with him in the studio on a track on her new album "Acid Tongue" and brought him into his own studio to perform a quickie album "Momofuko" (on which Lewis also appears). Charlie Haden was on an episode of the new show featuring Bill Clinton and heard Costello sing Hank Williams "Y


MONDAY, Dec. 1, 2008 - Eric J. Platt (Connected on only one side, as a town house / Chemistry Nobelist Otto / Order at the Pig and Whistle)


Relative difficulty: Medium-ChallengingTHEME: TURN ON A DIME (57A: Change abruptly, or what the insides of 17-, 27- and 43-Across do?) - letter string "DIME" appears backward ("EMID") in each of the three theme answersCute idea, but turning a DIME is not the same as turning ON a DIME, so the concept feels a bit forced. The buried and backward word is kind of mid-to-late week trick, but it's welcome here, as the answers were odd enough to slow me down considerably (For A Monday). IDEATES is up th

Lisa Germano: You Make Me Wanna Wear Dresses [purchase] When Boyhowdy asked me to write a guest post a few months ago, I was beyond flattered – after the New York Minute between his invitation and my submission (in case he changed his mind!), I spent quite a few hours perusing the archives to get a feel for the taste, tone and talent of the regular contributors (impressive being a major understatement)… I couldn’t help but experience more than a twinge of wistfulness as I read previous th


Mellencamp, IU end Men’s Soccer season 3-0

My Big Fat 2008 Turkey of the Year


The word "Thanksgiving" has many meanings. In historical context, the Pilgrims gave thanks for their new home, free of the religious persecution they escaped in Europe. In modern times, it means food. Lots of it. And family get-togethers. And football. And turkey. Lots of turkey.Here,we're serving up the turkey as well, celebrating the second annual "2008 Turkey Of The Year," devoted to the year's masters of media buffoonery. And what a year it was! Of course, it was all about the election this
