One of my favorite places in the world, especially when Barry Harris is in the house and in the company of a good friend

Been updating my contacts going years & years back. Apparently this junior investment bank analyst I met 13 years ago has become a musician. And pretty damn great one… love it! :) #SoulWideWorld

I can’t believe billboard advertising is an effective way for online user acquisition?? (saw it this morning in East Village, Manhattan)

Conan O’Brien 2011 Dartmouth’s Commencement Address

Somehow I never saw this until today. It’s really awesome and very much worth watching these 24 minutes - as much for the hilarious comedy in the first 16:30 min, as for the VERY profound advice in the last last 8 min that follow. Great, great video clip.

Some of my very favorable quotes in that latter part include:

“There are few things more liberating in this life than having your worst fear realized.”

“It is our failure to become our perceived ideal that ultimately defines us and makes us unique. It’s not easy, but if you accept your misfortune and handle it right, you perceived failure can become a catalyst for profound re-invention.”

“The beauty is that through disappointment you can gain clarity, and with clarity comes conviction and true originality.”

I love this rendition by Sophie Milman to the classic Israeli poem Walk To Caesare (“Eli, Eli”). The words (goo.gl/R1u5y) of Hanna Szenes (goo.gl/c74AC) are few and profound.

This performance of “You’ve Changed” by Candice Glover in this week’s American Idol is simply exquisite. Downloaded from iTunes within a minute of first watch. Enjoy…
