Has anyone heard of Aloe Blacc? I hadn't until last night when he appeared on Bill Maher's show. His video of Wake Me Up made me cry...and trust me, it takes a LOT to make me cry these days.

Wake Me Up by Aloe Blacc

Here's another one of his that choked me up: Hello World (The World Is Ours)

(okay...test)

re: Saul. The first segment was puzzling, the second made a bit more sense. I seem to recall it was three or four shows into Breaking Bad before I began to enjoy it. I like the Saul character..I think the bit with Mike as the parking lot cashier is dumb. I haven't seen any reviews. Will search.

RIP Mr. Spock

Told my eighth graders that yesterday and they had no idea who I was talking about. Sigh.

OMG...not even with Zachery Quinto playing the "young" Spock????

No. These kids were born after 2000. My older kids would know and I figure out these will later due to what they're exposed to online, based on what I've seen over the years. They pick stuff up between Jr high and about 10th grade.

But it's hard to interact using references. They're fun in other ways, tho. I had a science teacher colleague who told her 7th graders she had a flea's kidneys in an empty jar she had in her room.

Yeah, I'm getting to the point where kids only know some of my references if their parents immersed them in 70's - 90's pop culture.

Okay, this a great lesson: Love Has....

And another: this is a great outcome from that BS that ate Twitter and the internet and cable news last week: Why Is It So Hard To See Black and Blue?

I love that first one --- that's on the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. I got misty watching it, and that song always gets me going. If you've never hears all of it, don't let the fact that it's sort of hip-hop distract you from the lyrics. (unless you're a fan of hip-hop, in which case it won't bug you at all.)

9104. judithathome - 3/8/2015 7:54:00 PM

I got misty watching it

Me, too...and no worries about the music. If it "gets" you, YOU get IT.

Awww....at least he outlived everyone else in that clip!

Happy Easter, Happy Passover, Happy New Year to those who celebrate Theravada.

I'm watching The Bible. Reasonably well done, overwrought, but okay television, the OT's Greatest Hits. But is it a documentary? Comcast needs to add docudrama to their category listings.

I didn't know Roma Downey was married to Mark Burnett.

I had to laugh when I saw a trailer where some critic was claiming that A.D. is "House of Cards meets Game of Thrones."

Seriously? Has this person ever seen a single episode of either of those shows?

Every time I see the Step Up movies I wish I had learned to dance when I was young.
Step Up series
