E Street Shuffle?

This morning I'm sooooooooooo glad I made it to the Cleveland stop on the first leg of Bruce Springsteen's world tour. The internets have been abuzz with rumors that last night was the last show for E Street Band organist Danny Federici. Looking at this video from the first leg finale in Boston, something is definitely going on:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxj6_eOQhsY
The tour resumes next Sunday in Madrid so some sort of official announcement should be made by then. I can't imagine the E Street Band without Danny's Jersey Shore soaked organ sound.

As I prepare to indulge in my favorite sin, gluttony, I'm reminded that many are hungry today and every day. Its the issue of poverty that makes me support John Edwards for President. There are lots of folks out there on the front lines doing God's work. If you can, help out the folks at WHY, World Hunger Year:http://www.worldhungeryear.org/
Or if you'd rather help out closer to home, the Mid Ohio Foodbank needs your help too:http://www.midohiofoodbank.org/

This headline says the Iowa primary is currently a tight race...isn't that sorta like me saying the Super Bowl is currently tied? We're several months away from both...doesn't the media have real news stories to cover?:http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/11/19/AR2007111900940.html?hpid=topnews

Am I so out of touch that I do not grasp the popularity of Kanye West? Every day I see another story about the death of his mother. I didn't realize Kanye had evolved from the "George Bush hates black people" guy to national icon:http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/chi-west20nov20,0,77097.story?coll=chi_tab01_layout
