All systems functioning normally

Well the mayoral work went off without a hitch. No fatal errors. Part of the gala took place outside in 16 degree weather. Amidst falling snow, the mayor was hoisted off the ground on a platform crane in the middle of the street. Looking unsteady up in his perch, he pulled a cord that unravelled a huge banner on the side of a downtown skyway. People honked and waved and snuck little sips from flasks hidden in their long coats. He came down. Speeches were made. Many spoke in hyperbole, “I used the site and it was FUN and EXCITING”. They had obviously never seen it or used it. Good stuff.

But now I have some time to get down to the real business at hand, like checking out the amazing KillaKela site from the best British beatbox around. The site has a great little app that lets you create killer KillaKela graffiti. As a promotional tool this site is tops. It’s everything I would want in a Musicians site: personal tour journal, music samples, pictures, video, tour dates, and a great bunch of links. Following one of those links I found an interview with The Diabolical Biz Markie, spouting about his collection of old Air Jordan’s (Pink and White) and other classic footwear. The Biz also talks up his new 50,000 square foot house that he is building. The entire first level of the home will be storage for his record collection. Will this become my generations “Graceland”? Only time will tell.
