Ah, Monday again. Three more work weeks until Christmas! Today is Dave Brubeck's 90th birthday, so we're going to take a break from the Christmas music for him:
I can get behind the Awl's "JUST DRINK BOURBON, YOU WUSSES" campaign. I mean, alcohol-infused whipped cream could be interesting on some desserts, but just as an alcohol delivery method? No.
Dave Brubeck is from my town. We used to have a Jazz Festival at the park named after him (it used to be Concord Park & now it's the Dave Brubeck Park and the Jazz Festival moved to the Concord Pavilion and now it's the Sleeptrain Pavilion and they barely have concerts much less jazz. Bah. But the concert at the park was fabulous. It was really low key & fun).
