Buenos Aires & Colonia

Just back from Argentina with a side trip to Colonia, Uruguay (a very cool UNESCO World Heritage site). The weather was a bit warmer than I like, a summer-like heat wave in the midst of spring, but it was fun and a much needed break from the daily grind.

Madonna - Sticky & Sweet Tour

I just got home from the Garden where I saw Madonna on the NYC stop of her Sticky & Sweet Tour. It was Fabulous! 1,000 times better than the last time I saw her on the Drowned World Tour. I went with Lorelei, Marla and Diana - 3 very sweet, but no nonsense, Long Island chicks.

I thought that the kick-ass rock version of Borderline was better than the original.

During one of her costume changes, a video for Get Stupid was shown. Along with images of war, poverty, floods and Hitler was McCain. Towards the end of the video when the lyrics were uplifting images of John Lennon, Al Gore, Gandhi, Mother Teresa and Obama were shown - the audience roared their approval!

During I Love New York she added a little nugget to the end of this verse -

New York is not for little pussies who scream
If you can't stand the heat
Then get off my street, Sarah Palin

Here are some pix I took -

Heroes Season 3 Premier

although a bit gory, I thought they hit the ground running. Best line - Sylar to Claire "...Claire, that's disgusting." Mohinder shirtless, nice chest, who knew?

The Twins Birthday!

It was Leila & Ruby's birthday yesterday and my good couchsurfing friends Edouard & Eric and my friend Suraj and I all showed up at the Dove to wish them a Happy 23rd!

Here are some pix from the party:
