Happy Fifth Birthday, (my son) Julian!

Happy birthday to Nelson Mandela, who turns 90 today. He celebrated the day in his favorite way: by not being in prison because of state-sponsored racism and tyranny.



The new Batman movie, The Dark Knight opens today, with a record-breaking box office likely, and an excess of $100 million 3-day total expected. Mamma Mia also opens today, but I think we already know why Bruce Wayne is a multi-billionaire and the members of Abba aren’t.



Billy Joel will play the last concert ever at New York’s Shea Stadium tonight, as the ball park is scheduled to be torn down at the end of the baseball season. As for the stadium’s demolition, the owners are just going to have Billy Joel come back in and let him drive around.
