3. Wow! Dave Brubeck. A well deserved Honor.

Brubeck is one of many jazz artists whose music will never die--ever. His best piece is "Rondo." It was also performed by Keith Emerson (ELP). What an incredible tune. Now you know my musical taste.

4. Everything may not be changed overnight, but it's the toughing moments that show he's one of us...

Just trying to bring the nation together as best he can. Some may disagree how he goes about it but in the end Congress will function better with fewer animosities. It may not happen today but it likely will come about with time.
