I’m watching The Riches on FX (tv network). Now this is must see tv-ma. My cousin K has been pushing me to watch it. I hit ‘play’ and first rattle out of the box - I see Eddie Izzard.

Eddie Izzard is one of the funniest comedian / actors of our time. If you don’t recognize the name, he is British born and famous for his brilliant stand-up. His line in episode three “Peter Piper picked a peck of Panco people…and it was good” is classic Eddie Izzard stand-up. I swear I hear someone off-stage laughing. TiVo it and see for yourself.

This show is so briliantly conceived and written that every role is an actor’s dream part. The Riches co-stars an a-list of actors including fellow British actor / song writer Minnie Driver (incredible), Canadian Noel Fisher - excellent. This cast is the cream of the crop. I even like the web site graphics. Riveting and hysterical! TV-MA

My new Playlist “No Borders” is here online now. I woke up Sunday am (Earth Day 2007) at 5:30am and went downstairs with my camera and ipod. My player was set to ’shuffle’ and this “no borders” is the order of the playlist as it played durring the sunrise. I think you’ll like it as much as I do. Watch for the panoramic sunrise like here at the top soon.

Check it out, 13 great songs complete with all the controls and cover art. Play for free now (in the left bar Tunefeed). Tell me what you think - comment below privately if desired. I have added a “launch player in popup“ link.
You can skip to the next song easily - just hover and click on the next song’s cover art. Also, you can hover your mouse over the other controls to see what they do. For instance, the headphone icon will bring up my previous playlists that you can play (Jamie Cullum Sampler, 2007 Lead In, Grammy Nominees, and more). I hope you find a new song or artist you like!

My all time favorite radio show (podcast) is This American Life with Ira Glass on NPR. You can visit the This American Life archives, with hundreds of episodes dating back to their first year on the air, 1995. If you’re new to the show, you might want to start with their page of favorite programs. You can browse by year, or search the entire archive for a specific topic or name. Find that one show you heard a long time ago, discover new stories by a favorite contributor, download or stream individual episodes, or just poke around by clicking on each title for a detailed show description.

This American Life is now on TV as well on Showtime.

Three Scouts from a flock of forty Canada Geese start looking for safe spots in the water to overnight as a storm continues to blow in. Canada Geese always spend nights on the water for protection (regardless how cold it is).
This photo I took on the run and with the camera up high and backwards in late afternoon April 11, 2007 with Canon G7.

Aaron Krane hosts the two minute daily Buzz TV from Technorati. Buzz TV is a capsulated comment on what is being searched for and discussed on the web now. It’s concise, entertaining, informative and always funny. Aaron Krane’s dry delivery is the perfect match for this fun little spot in the day.

I have a Buzz TV button on my browser toolbar so I don’t forget to watch it at least once a week. And, since it’s only 2 minutes long, I can catch up on the whole weeks episodes in no time.

Cassini peers around the hazy limb of the frigid moon Titan to spy the sunlit south pole of Saturn in the distance beyond. Titan’s thick, smog-like atmosphere is a major source of interest for scientists involved with the Cassini mission. Courtesy of NASA “Image of the Day Gallery”.

This is one of the many spectacular images that I see everyday on my Personalize Google homepage with literally hundreds of modules to choose from, I have this one center stage.
