There’s a song on the new Beck CD that just breaks my heart. The 4th track, Lonesome Tears, so good! BobBorden.com recommends Beck’s Sea Change.

I got home late last night after a long day at work. I had a very good, very busy day – I like keeping busy. Anyway, I crashed on the sofa and somehow managed to catch two cool things on TV. The first was Johnny Carson on the old Late Night show. It was fantastic! Eddie Van Halen was sitting in with the band and Dave interviewed a prickly Lee Marvin – I love catching those old shows, they’re like time capsules of popular culture. Dave said to Eddie, something like — Does Dave (Lee Roth) get on your nerves? – Eddie hid behind his guitar and nodded yes. So great!

The second cool thing I saw was this show on BBC America, The Office. I’ve been hearing good things and this was the first time I was able to catch it. I only saw the last 20 minutes but it was very funny/clever. I need a Tivo! I may break down and get one, one of these days. The Office airs again on Sunday at 10:40, I’m going to check it out.

The weekend is here! This week went by pretty fast. The snow pile covering my car is slowly melting. Beautiful day yesterday — I would describe it as a crisp day. I’m going to see Old School tonight, I’m looking forward to that – I’m looking for some solid, mindless entertainment.

And now it’s time for a new feature to BobBorden.com, I call it: BobBorden.com’s Win a 4-year-old Autographed Headshot of Bob Borden Contest. Simply tell me you want to win on my message board and you’ll be entered in the drawing for this lovely item:

This photo is suitable for framing and I will write my autograph on my chin (Sadly, the photographer chose that as a focal point). I’m keeping this contest open all weekend and I’ll announce the winner in Monday’s diary. That’s how you play BobBorden.com’s Win a 4-year-old Autographed Headshot of Bob Borden Contest — tell your friends!

That’s it for another week. Have a great weekend!

God Bless America.
