Perseids Meteor Shower Peak - August 12 and 13, 2010

This Thursday night is a great night for gazing at the sky (as long as the clouds stay away). After the sun goes down, turn your attention to the west and there will be an alignment of Venus, Saturn, Mars, and a crescent Moon. Venus will be the brightest object, except for the sliver of moon obviously. Should be an awesome sight.

Around 10:00 p.m. Thursday night, look to the northeast, grab a blanket and hang out in the yard or on a boat in the river and you should be pleasantly surprised. Lay back and don't try to focus on one specific spot. No need for a telescope or binoculars.

Here's a cool article about viewing this year's Perseid Meteor Shower along with SKY MAPS to let you know where to look;)

Bon Iver - Skinny Love Live on Jools Holland

Thank you Grey's Anatomy for playing Bon Iver a long time ago. I fell in love. The band is called Bon Iver. That's pronounced 'bon-eevair.' The guy in this video is named Justin Vernon. He started the band in 2007 and made a solo appearance on Live with Jools Holland, which has quickly become one of my favorite shows. It comes on Ovation TV a few times a day. Each show has 5 or 6 different musical acts of all different types. This is one of my favorites from what I've seen so far. The song is called Skinny Love.

This song and the way it's performed is one of those that grabs you by your heartstrings and yanks the hell out of them.  Awesomeness...
