Saw this passing a McDonalds and can only draw two conclusions....

A:) Mayor McCheese has been assassinated and...

B)  The United States does not maintain diplomatic relations with McDonaldLand....

Mom I wish you had been in Flagstaff.

...you could have done justice to the rain-dripping cacti evident after a rare stormy day above the saguaros. Don't know if you can tell it's a deluge in these pictures. 

Tedious trip back to BWI today. 1-stop flight, middle seat again, plus arrived to find my car alarm had been going off for three days and battery was dead. Nice. Finally made it back and am crashing.  Love you guys. Oh! Package here. Thanks. 

You rarely see large real painted art in a chorus dressing room bathroom

Not sure how much of an honor this is for the artist,  given that no toilet seat lid and the phenomenon of 'droplet aerosolization' guarantees it's encrusted with a growing layer of fecal matter.  

Dawn over the Quality Inn in Wickenburg, AZ

The usual jam-up at Southwest

On to Arizona!

"My bag...she no come...!"

"Why? Why she no come, my bag? WHY?"

Michael Eisner backstage Las Vegas convention center

Morning show. Eisner pretty aloof.  Shook hands with him. He didn't IMMEDIATELY take out the purell, but I bet he did later...

Waking up in room 1132, the Las Vegas Hotel.

Show in 90 minutes.  My prediction?  Suckage: and a hasty fleeing of Nevada..

If there are slot machines when you get off the plane you must be in Vegas

Short day yesterday;  early long flight in middle seats. Ugh. Now to gamble away a shiny new quarter like I always do. Gimme 7s, baby!

Sing Sing Prison, Ossining, NY

Where once again I was briefly imprisoned. 

Tarrytown...about to leave for Morristown, NJ

Resorts are OK, I guess,  but give me a Sheraton with a grocery store next door anytime. 

Landed in Newark

...drove to Tarrytown.  Have been under the weather last few days, but just driving out of Newark is cheering.  In a world of ugly,  depressing airports,  Newark may take the ass-ugly cake.  Did get to drive past new WTC construction.

Me n Evan keepin' folks in line

Katie Tilford...

...sportin' one of her Christmas presents.  It's easy when your daughters look good in EVERYTHING.  

Being de-iced in Rochester

Holding out hope...

Long sojourn in Rochester

Well, they cancelled the early show, power came back on and we did the late one. We agreed to stay an extra day and redo the early show at 5 yesterday. Very well received;  especially with custom opening number about power going out. Now at Rochester airport where it's snowing like God's Dandruff.  Will we ever get out?! My New Year's Resolution is to somehow leave Rochester. 

Happy New Year!

From the stage at Nazareth College.  Plus Howard and Delores wreathed in pouring smoke. Nice. Love you guys. Hope it's the best year ever.

The power is out at Nazareth College

They just cancelled our first show and sent the sold-out crowd home. 

In Rochester, have to shave...

But only got halfway through. Happy New Year's Eve!

Matt picked a helluva place to break down

The exit for Tyson's Corner Mall and the Belttwat. At rush hour. On Friday.  Triple-A and I helped! 

Feeling a little negative today

One more radio show recording tonight.  Whew!

Also, Birthday Girl and her Mom

Early Christmas since Jo is leaving Wednesday

Matt, Jo, and Moo

We had some Christmas stew...

Two weekends of radio show

Our long-time audio engineer, Jim Smith, is ill, so we are going DIY. Which means we're paranoid so we're recording over two weeks. I look particularly fat and Germanic here. But I nailed mah shit. Yeah!

C and I narrated for the Young Colombians tonight

At the Mormon Temple.  Beautifully decorated,  I must say.  I'm pretty sure the last one is Jesus. And a damn fine Jesus he is.
