Good afternoon!

It is All-Star mania here in Minneapolis.  Right now there is a red-carpet parade on Nicollet Mall and the game starts today at 7.   Here is a great interview about an even greater book and author: Betsy’s Day at the Game by Greg Bancroft.

On to other topics…

Here are a few things that have been on my pop-culture mind:

1. Garth:  Today he will announce his concert tour.  So excited! First stop is Chicago on September 4!  http://www.garthbrooks.com/chicago/

2. The View:  Wow what a roller coaster! Jenny and Sherry are out, Barbara has retired, and now Rosie is on.  Who will be next?

3. Fargo and Emmy nominations:  Fargo did not get the most nominations but hopefully they will win the most!  All the performances were phenomenal.

Take care and stay tuned for the next Garth tour announcement.
