I saw Sting on Public TV last night, a typical "give us money" special, designed to drain funds from Baby-Boomers like myself. Sting, playing an ancient instrument (which sounded like a cheap guitar but looked like something Mr. Spock might have played), singing a James Taylor song, in whose honor the entire shebang was being thrown...and filmed.

Looked good in HD, though, and there were many *killer* performances therein...Dr. John and Taj Mahal, Keith Urban (yeah, I was amazed, too, and with Nicole looking rather fine in the audience, too) and Allison Kraus.

We do not have a "don't want" problem at our house as we sort of wrapped up the gift issue in one fell swoop by buying the 42" plasma tv on Black Friday, using windfall money that had been in custody of the state for the last 18 years without my knowledge...until Selene discovered and liberated it.

Cool, huh?
