Back to work today, It’s funny the weather change her was colder than Iceland and I’m feeling a bit under the weather tonight. Just found out that one of my new c-workers has the swine flu H1N1. I think that’s the first person so close to us to get it. Everyone is spraying Lysol around there desks now.

In the news today, Stewart David Nozette, a former U.S. government scientist from Chevy Chase, Maryland was arrested and charged with trying to deliver classified information to someone he thought was an Israeli intelligence official; and members of Congress say President Obama shouldn't delay troop decision for Afghanistan.

Today is one of my favorite contemporary artist’s birthday, Peter Max (Finkelstein) was born today in 1937 in Berlin, my Father’s hometown. Today was also Baltimore born cross-dressing actor Divine’s birthday in 1945. I was at the world premier of the original Hairspray and met Divine a s himself, Harris Glenn Milstead, shortly before he died. He was the most unsuspecting quiet and shy guy to image being so flamboyant as Divine.
