Friday Stuff

Silly Chris Hayes – doesn’t he know that purposeful, righteous shaming of our elected officials like this is sooooo pre 9/11 – OK, snark mode off; kudos to Hayes for saying this…



…oh, and in case you’ve been wondering what happened to our rain in these United States, this tells us of the awful flooding in Russia and China, which has a lot to do with the misery at the Green Island Zoo in Ussuriysk noted in the clip below (all of this is still under investigation, I should point out...and by the way, I'm definitely not trying to trivialize the enormous suffering going on - if you want to help, click here and here, though I don't vouch for these sites)…



…and it looks like Sesame Street figured out what was going on with The Donald long before anybody else (here – and no snark about Kevin Clash, please)…



…and I’d like to present the following for local folk in Bucks County, PA, and the Philadelphia area; local musician Gregg Parker will perform the music of singer/songwriter Harry Chapin exclusively at the first free "Harry Chapin Hall of Fame Petition Drive, Tribute and Benefit" at Old York Cellars Winery, 80 Old York Road tomorrow from 1-5 PM in an effort to get Chapin inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame (didn’t know there was one – a no-brainer of a choice as far as yours truly is concerned…more details are in the linked story…there’s a YouTube clip out there of a tribute concert to Chapin from about ’82, and Pat Benatar did an absolutely amazing cover of this song).
