So I just read Dick Cavett

on William F. Buckley, Jr. Great blog. If you click on the title of this post it should take you directly to the nytimes.com website.
This was great from the story, a dedication that Buckley once wrote to Cavett in a book:
To Richard, in deepest gratitude for “More in Seurat than in Ingres.” May I use it?
With affection,
Bill

Now, I was really confused as to WTF this means, it's in reference to french painters but what was the play on words on...

somebody posted this in a comment:

It always hurts to have to explain a bon mot, but here goes:

Hamlet: What, look’d he frowningly?
Horatio: A countenance more in sorrow than in anger.

So there you go!

So I just got chills

reading Bob Herbert at nytimes.com. His column focuses on NY Governor to be David Paterson. What gave me chills or goosebumps was what Eliot Spitzer told Paterson on the phone before he resigned.

Herbert writes:
The call from Mr. Spitzer himself came at 10 minutes after 10 a.m. on Wednesday. Mr. Paterson remembers it this way:

“He said, ‘I’m going to resign.’ And then, at that turbulent moment in his life, he gave me such a kind compliment. He said, ‘David, I told you that in the event I didn’t serve my full term that I wanted a person there who understood how Albany worked and could work well with colleagues. Right now, as bad as I feel about myself, I am so happy about convincing you to come with me.’ ”

Mr. Paterson said he was buoyed by the governor’s words and that they eased his own growing anxiety.

Good column.

So I just

realized that when you ask a woman "what do you want to do?" and she answers "you know what I want." Well, darn it... you just shut the fuck up and don't ask any more questions. The deal is done, you've sold the vacuum cleaner, start billing the hours. Don't blow it, don't say something stupid....oooooops! you had to open your mouth didn't you. Hahahhaa

So I just said...

out loud, to myself "If there is a god, thank you!". I am an atheist, but man...
I'm listening to Freddie Hubbard's Mr. Clean. Damn I love music! and I'm thankful to whatever that I can appreciate music and that I can play an instrument and express myself. Damn I love music! MUSIC!!
