Please stop

I am a very tolerant person when it comes to music.  I'll listen to any type of genre and I appreciate the talent it takes to make music.

However, the two following "artist" should stop making music.  The qualifications for this are entirely of my own choosing.

Madonna sneering

You are not Elvis.  You are not Marilyn.  You're not Garbo or Dietrich.  And, most importantly, you are not a musician.

The reason Kabbalahdonna is forced to change her image so often is her complete lack of ability to produce and perform anything with musical relevance.  People who list Madonna as an influence never refer to her music.

Ms. Ciccone has an abundance of talent.  Her persistence in changing how she looks, moves, speaks, and dresses has afforded her the constant and desired public attention.  She should retire her strained vocal chords and fall back on that great acting career she's built.

Fun to watch

I'm not a big fan of the New York Yankees.  And, I'm also not tremendously enamored with the Boston Red Sox.  I grew up listening to the Minnesota Twins on WCCO radio .

I am enjoying watching the Yankees / Red Sox game this evening.  I think part of is the established rivalry.  In addition, there almost always seem to be intangibles associated when the two teams meet.

This series it's Johnny Damon coming back to Boston for the first time since defecting.  And, the nice storyline of Doug Mirabelli being traded back to the Red Sox today and making it to the ballpark just in time for the game.

David Ortiz hit a three run homer in the bottom of the eighth inning to extend the Sox lead to 4 runs.  I wish the Twins could have kept him in their organization. 

I really need to go see some more games.
