The end of “Glee” from Fox last night (5/19/09).

I particularly enjoyed this show b/c of its quirkiness. We won’t be able to see the next episode (or the rest of the season for that matter) until the Fall… but this was one heck of an audition for the show.

It has a lot of lessons overlayed… people normally at odds with each other (cheerleaders and choir geeks) recognizing greatness when they see it… misfits coming together under a common mission… students and teachers following something they’ve become passionate about.

Music sets my soul on fire… the way it can make me feel after a day at work (think Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top), on the way into work (think Beautiful Day by U2), when I wake up (think Clocks by Coldplay), when I make dinner (think Dreamcatcher by Andy McKee), when I’m about to waterski (think Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet), when I’m about to go to sleep (think Overkill by Colin Hay). It’s a magnificent, powerful, intimate connection that I have with no other art. This was an especially good rendition of “Don’t Stop Believing.” Hope you enjoy!

Transcendent Moments - Bulls vs. Celtics

Fri, 01 May 2009 16:17:12 -0500

Bulls vs. Celtics will be on Saturday night, 7pm. Bill Simmons writes for ESPN – he has up and down columns… mostly down lately… but I think this one is a three point play. Good style. Good substance. Great writing. It’s about more than just the game, the series, the sport – it’s about all sports. About why I love sports – why they can make you stand up and cheer at the TV or make you shrink into the couch and cry. About why we keep watching – no matter how many times a team lets you down, how many times a team will make you think they’ve found their rhythm before stinking it up on the big stage (I’m thinking Cubs, Bears, maybe even the Blackhawks) – despite all that, we keep watching. We tune in on week nights and school nights, weekends and holidays, Saturday afternoons and Monday nights just to get a glimpse of that elusive moment. That transcendent moment. David Tyree catches a ball ON HIS HEAD. Uribe charges hard, with a bare hand, grabs the ball, slings it to first for the out and the CHAMPIONSHIP. Jordan turns to the scorer’s table with a “I don’t know what’s going on” grin. Lance looks at Ullrich and then gets out of the saddle. Noah steals the ball, races Paul Pierce to the other end and throws a FACIAL down. They are out there – they are rare and so few and far between that sometimes we forget about them – but those transcendent moments are out there. And Game 7, Saturday night is sure to be the capstone to this series. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/090501&sportCat=nba From the article »There are many great things about sports, but here’s one of the best: You never know when two teams will click… We love sports for the simple reason that we never know when this will happen. It rarely does. We watch a lot of crummy games. We watch sporting events that had potential to be great and weren’t. We watch sporting events that almost made it, but one dumb thing happened to screw it up: A foul at the wrong time, a penalty, a two-base error, whatever. We keep watching. We keep hoping. And when everything clicks, it’s blissful.
