News and Notes
- Slash was the mentor on American Idol this week. He does not speak the way I thought he would. I was expecting a gravelly, smokey rock guy voice. But he's actually more Troy Polamalu than Gene Simmons.
- For those who didn't hear through other channels, we did indeed buy a house. Perhaps I will post pictures once we close on it later this month. It is outside the city (barely). I didn't really think about all the ramifications of that until Bram pointed out that this May's primary will be my last time voting in the city for a while. This was definitely weird for about eight seconds, and then I realized I didn't really care.
- Kudos to my contact at this fine organization, through whom I've scored four pairs of free Broadway Series tickets for the current season. We recently saw Rent, which I had seen in New York previously. But this production featured the two original leads, Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal. Very cool. Up next: Spring Awakening later this month.
