Brian Williams and Bruce Springsteen are both Jersey guys. As are Jon Stewart and Bill Maher. And myself if I consider myself a guy.

Wow. Richard Stengel on MorningJoe is explaining how Time magazine is going to save journalism and Detroit, both at the same time. How he’s going to preserve readership and ad revenue he does not talk about. All because “we’re stakeholders now, we bought a house there.”

Newsflash, big guy; you can own a house and not be a stakeholder. We have lots of ‘em in the Midwest. They’re called absentee owners on a good day, slumlords more often. And we’re not convinced you won’t be as damaging an indirect, glancing blow to community as those Florida dwelling rent suckers are.

Brian Williams did a segment on the NBC news about Springsteen’s birthday and reminded viewers that he’s the leader of “The heart-stopping, pants-dropping, house-rocking, earth-shaking, booty-quaking, Viagra-taking, love-making – Le-gen-dary E – Street – Band!”

Received an e-mail with the salutation “salope,” so went to the Urban Dictionary web site. None too flattering, that salope. But then I came across this:

Yes, I made it a big deal at my house today, celebrating my all-time fave rock and rollin’ man, Bruce Springsteen.
Now I must give birthday props to another, born on the same date,
…John Coltrane

Whoa! My computer was attacked and Norton shut me down..this damn thing presented itself as NortonSecurity and wanted me to turn control of my computer over to it via a remote control link! I see my post of 10:08, so it took just an hour for the real Norton to take over and fix this mess…had to totally disable and uninstall Norton and install a new version of the product.
Well…Norton takes a beating from a lot of geeks, I know, but they keep me up and running and they are good. My brother relies on IP McAffee only, and my friends use free AVG and love it, and I use Norton and pay for it, and we are all happy as clams…to each his own!

Pee Wee was not on Leno ( I had the sound on as I was being serviced by Norton). I read that wrong , it appears.
