Found while looking for personnel information on Chick Corea’s wonderful album Sundance, I offer this, without comment, for your consideration:
‘light as a feather’ is quite simply as close to perfection as jazz can get, the aural equivalent of eating potatoes roasted in goose fat while being massaged by a naked scarlett johanssen. it is the very essence of beauty, and can only enrich your life.

(what a neat trick that would be…)
Neil Gaiman has recently linked to a series of essays by Teller (of “Penn and…” fame) describing his upcoming production of Macbeth. As Neil says, the essays are good. I find them pleasantly abrupt, skittering from topic to topic. In that sense, they read more like journal entries or blog posts, albeit better written and more exciting than your average journal or blog. (Would that all our blogs were documents of impending productions of Shakespeare!)
