New York: Let me see if I get it right: the fate of Western (actually all) civilization, rest on the bony shoulders of the Senior Senator from New York, Chuck Schumer. If Chuck votes for the Iran Nuclear deal, it goes through, if he doesn’t the undecided follow Schumer and Obama can’t override with a veto. Translation: this world gets more ridiculous by the second.

Sports: The Yanks beating the O’s last night? A biggie. If they sweep em, the Division it is the Yanks to lose. As for the Mets… they beat the Nats!!!
Death: Writer E.L. Doctorow, best known for the brilliant “Ragtime”, died at age of 84. An odd book, resistant to both a musical and a movie, but with its Joplin charm.
Recorded: Still listening to Titus Andronicus, still haven’t quite figured out my emotions towards the album, I think I am not crazy about it. Otherwise, I am sick of last week’s releases and am ready for some new stuff already.
Live: I’ve got my eye on this weekend myself: Young Fathers, Titus and U2 –should be a riot.
