At some point in every parenting journey, there comes a time when you have to teach your child about your favorite recording artist. Recently when I was preparing Nora’s lunch, I put my iPhone into iPod mode to play a random shuffling of my top rated music. I let it play throughout her lunch and when she was done eating, I decided to teach her to say “Dave Matthews”. She picked it up pretty quickly, so I pulled out the video camera.

	My recent DVD order of Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City Music Hall from April 22, 2007, arrived in the mail yesterday. iTunes link. Of course, I had to watch it in its entirety last night. I’ve always wanted to attend a Dave & Tim performance, but never got to. This DVD is [...]

From the Smithsonian American Art Museum:

George Catlin painted ominous, swirling clouds of black smoke that loom out of the distance and drive the Indians before them.
