First, I have to say congratulations to Matt and Amy on their great news. It always amazes me that people my age can get married not to mention have a kid. But that's mainly since I have the mind of a rabbit in heat. That said, its kind of sad for me to hear new like this since it truly means that I'm growing up. I mean I have a full time job, my best friend is leaving for two months with the US Coast Guard to protect our country, and Amy has one in the oven. Man, I feel old all of a sudden. Then I look around my office and see that I'm still the youngest one here, thank God!
Less related to growing up is what I brought back from Thailand...thankfully not AIDS. No, when I was at lunch with a customer we talked about music and I asked if she liked Thai or American music. Here response was both, and I asked what American music she liked. She responded "Allison Kraus." Well I have some on my ipod (ok so I have two live CD's worth) but never really listened to much beyond "Man of constant sorrow." So when I came back I started listened to all of it and its pretty awesome. So even though I still love Less Than Jake and the Dandy Warhols with a passion I have to tip my hat to bluegrass too.

Alison Kraus....Doesn't she sing ballads? We listened to her a lot in my "romances" (pronounced how they'd say it in spanish) class....I took this class where we read El Cid...and my professor was really into showing examples of english ballads and said Alison Kraus was a master....
I really have no idea about the ballads. But I do know that her bluegrass is pretty awesome.
