Gosh I do love my boyfriend Prince

I guess when Prince did his London O2 concert he did a segment just on the piano. WOW. He could definitely do an entire concert tour of just him, a piano, and his guitars. These arrangements are beeootiiful.

I love the originals of these songs, but "Something in the Water" is especially good when given this pared down treatment. Cause itsa so sad! "You think you're special? Well so do I. Why do special women make me cry?" (This 1984 version is great too, though. Who is the great Pepepurito2 who's posting all these amazing live and alternate versions of Prince songs? He's becoming a youtube hero.)

Ari and son

Sherry and I are finally watching season 6 of entourage. They do a good job of humanizing the foul-mouthed and crude agent, Ari Gold, by making him a family man. Like this funny exchange:

Ari Gold is sleeping on the couch. He wakes up to find his little boy staring at him.

Ari - What are you doing buddy?
Son - I'm waking you up with my mind.
Ari [awed] - Good work!
