I got to hurry up before I grow too old

Happy birthday to the late, great Joe Strummer, someone I now associate with Paul Wellstone, because I heard about each man's death in the car while listening to NPR, and had to pull to the shoulder each time until I was fit to drive again.

My sister was one of Wellstone's aides at the time and I remember hoping against hope that she wasn't on that plane.

And she wasn't. Which shows that sometimes things turn out the way you want them too.

Niobe, I stopped breathing in the middle of your first sentence.

Sometimes, sometimes.
