Detroit AIrport

For any of you lucky enough to be heading to Detroit this weekend, be sure to go from concourse A to C, or verse-vice-a. It's so worth it, because... there's a huge curve-roofed corridor, the length of a football field, with ambient music and trippy lights on the walls. It may be the most exciting thing in thier airport. Even more so than the red tram that runs the length of the airport. Oh yeah, there's Super Bowl XL stuff EVERYWHERE. Go Steelers!

The trip to Boston (with layovers in Detroit) was good. This included my first Billy Joel concert, a visit to Grendel's Den in Cambridge for lunch and a cold Cambridge Amber (one of the best in North America).
One thing that struck me, is a physical similarity between Billy Joel (here pictured with Bill Clinton) and Anders (here pictured with Jill Sobule (who has a Kevin Bacon number of 2).





All you need to do is buzz your hair really short, and trim the beard to a goatee, Anders, and you got a strong resemblance. More so than the Anthony Hopkins playing Col. William Ludlow in Legends of the Fall.
