willie nelson!

Joyce and I are headed to Red Rocks today to see Willie Nelson. Oh, yeah. Maybe Obama will make a surprise appearance on stage with Willie. I'm trying to think what Willie song would be an appropriate campaign song. Proly not "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground" or "If You've Got the Money (I've Got the Time)" or "Nothing I Can Do About it Now." Maybe "Blue Skies" or "Living in the Promised Land," though--seems like they'd work out okay. I just heard today that Bruce is playing the DNC on Thursday. Maybe I'll just spend the next few days down in Denver. Bruce and Willie in one week? That would be awesome.

I suppose that doesn't quite count as citizens arrest. Vigilante justice, maybe. Whack, whack! In less aggravating news, tomorrow is the last day of classes for the semester. Finally. It's been a long time comin' this fall. I really should start thinking about the trip to WV and AZ and start planning some Christmas gifty-gifts.

Damn! All my training is for shit! Here is a clever sign, but I can't explain why. Is this an example of irony? And if it's irony, is it dramatic irony? Or situational? Maybe verbal? Oh, the shame of being a member of Las Departamento de English and not being able to identify a smart rhetorical play when I see it! The shame!
