I really like MSNBC Anchor, Lester Holt. He amazes me. He seems to be on TV every time I turn on MSNBC - like 24 hours a day. Not only that, but I hear him on NBC radio updates as well. He always looks the same and sounds the same. I've never seen him on TV looking beat. I've never seen him say, "Man, I'm just beat today..." The guy's amazing, like a robot, a super-human. 
He also seems to be smarter than the average talking head. When I've seen him interview guests, he seems to...actually be listening!
So it was with great pleasure I found out this morning that Lester has another skill: Bass Player! The guy sat in as bassist for The Captain and Tenille in a live street performance of "Do That To Me One More Time" on MSNBC...and he was good! The guy's a pro. He even took a solo. Solid.
Love this guy.
In other news, Al Roker is rumored to be in discussions to join a New Kids On The Block reunion tour later this summer.

2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments.

Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
