I'm grateful that black children, ALL children, can look up to the highest office in the land and see that the sky is the limit. I'm grateful for hope, and how it spreads. I'm grateful for the fun and friendships I have made over the past year by connecting my art with poets, musicians, dancers and dreamers. I'm thankful that art and community are really

Go to poetry readings. Or coffeehouses where weirdos hang out. Eavesdrop. Play the bongos for an hour. Make up a chord no one's ever heard before. Google the absurd. Write about the thing that pisses you off the most in the world, then invert the feeling. Smell lots of things. Remember.

Nice! If I had money, I would give it to him. Please keep us updated on his project.

I heard he's got writer's block, so he's letting that one dude from ABBA write his lyrics.

Happy Birthday!

ABANDONED MINE IMPERILS HOME OF EX-LEGISLATOR By John Cheves jcheves@herald-leader.com An abandoned coal mine is causing an Eastern Kentucky hillside to slide slowly onto the home of former state Rep. Howard Cornett, R-Whitesburg, who championed coal companies in the legislature. The "continual flow" of water from the abandoned mine has saturated Cornett's yard and the foundation of his home, according to Steve Hohmann, director of the Division of Abandoned Mine Lands.

Dana Carvey-Will Ferrell: What coulda been

Not to get too political, but I was just talking about you with some friends last night! When you coming back through KY?

I bet this was worth the trip there all by itself. And I bet a good time was had by all! And I bet I forgot to take a photo of the crew with my stupid camera I hauled around all night!

Happy Belated!

Happy Birthday, Jules! Hope it's a good one. See you in the Spring?
