Induction

I know that a lot of you think I have dissappeared off the planet, however, the past few weeks have just been insanely busy, so I haven't had much time to do anything-much less blog. Anyhow, this past weekend was Induction, and as you know that means a VERY busy three days for James and I. I just get to deal with the general public, James, however has a more significant role. This year he was the official blogger for the Ceremony. He did such a GREAT job! you should read it! go here :http://web.baseballhalloffame.org/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080727&content_id=8666&vkey=hof_news

Today

This one goes out to the one I love. Happy 5th Anniversary baby!!! I can't wait for the next 100 years with you.

Note

I've been meaning to do this for a while, and I've been so busy that it slipped my mind. As a lot of you know My pa-in-law (Dave Yasko) was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer several months ago. Since has been undergoing a SERIES of tests and treatments! Anyway, he tells the story in a way that only a Yasko can! he's created a blog to keep everyone updated: Check it out, leave comments, and let him know you're praying for him! :) here's his blog: http://blog.daveyasko.com/

Something Different

Since I've been working so much lately, (both at home and elsewhere) I've been listening to a lot more music than normal. James is leaps and bounds ahead of me as far as the amount of music he ACTUALLY listens too, but please give credit where credit is due. I am responsible for probably 40% of the new stuff we listen to. Anyhow, as he has posted his most recent blog about the Broken west, I feel is my duty to help you out in your music library regardless of age, sex, height..whatever. And yes, i'm sure that some of them coincide with James', but these are my PERSONAL choices for albums you MUST have, and that I can't currenlty get enough of . Here goes:

1. Will Hoge- "Blackbird on a Lonely Wire". Its a fabulous album from start to finish. IGo see them live if you can..you will fall in love. It's true rock and roll...when that used to mean something.

2.Wilco- "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot". this album changed the way i listen to music.

3. The Broken West- "I can't go on Ill go On". Just get it and listen to it straight through.

4. Anything by Ray LaMontagne. The man is a genious. period.

5. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova aka the "Once" soundtrack. if you haven't seen the movie..do. and buy the soundtrack it's.....beautiful.

6.Guster- "Keep it together" Great Album

7. James Morrison- "Undiscovered"

8. Marc Broussard -"Carencro" It's all about the soul, baby!

9. The Pernice Brothers- "Yours, Mine and Ours." AWESOME!

10. Travis- "The Man Who"- this is my favorite of the Travis albums, but they're all great!

11. Ryan Adams- "Gold" and that it is...

12. Coldplay - All (but especially "A Rush of Blood to the Head")

I have 5,753 songs On my Ipod. This is by no means ALL you should have. I just think there is something wrong if you don't. :)

and this is a picture that I took a while back...no significance

cheers!
