This one is dedicated to Lebron James who predicted more than 7 championships for the Heat lost last night and said all his haters will have to go back to the real world and their problems while he is happy with his family. So once again, Lebron thinks he is bigger than people's regular problems since he offers a distraction from the difficult lives the rest of us little folk live.

"He who seeks beauty shall find it"- Bill Cunningham

The wife and I went to see Bill Cunningham New York last night at the Film Forum.  I had no idea who he was, had never been to an indie theater before and actually never even been to see documentary in theaters before.

I am not the biggest fashion guy in the world (I know what I like, thats it), but Bill Cunningham would tell me otherwise.  His whole view is that beauty is being different and know what you like.  Not what the designers shove down your throat.  Just be you! 

This was not only an interesting fashion piece but a wonderful human piece as well.  There were also plenty of laughs.  I highly recommend checking it out even though its running its last shows at the film forum today.

 

Get it on your NetFlix queue.

Shows this past week...

Just saw QOTSA preform their self titled album from start to finish. The show was 4/1 at the Riv in Chicago. Great show but we got there late and missed "Regular John" and "Avon," which makes me ill to think about. After they played the album, they played a few favorites. Any way the show was great and I found this on YouTube. Thanks to Rickker for posting.

Also, check out Hopleaf for preRiv beers and eats. The beers and food were on point.

Listen to these while you consume green beer. Clearly what is most important today is when you are out today, act like you have been out drinking before. No one likes the guy or girl who is not only not Irish, but is head to toe in green and puking all over himself.
