Paris On Rails

R.I.P. Clarence Clemons

I didn’t know his name until today, but the saxophonist from the E-Street Band died the other day.

I managed to see Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band two summers ago. I recall seeing a zoomed-in shot of Clemons’ gold-painted fingernails working his shiny sax hard.

His sax work was insane and really made the breakdowns in those tracks on The Wild, The Innocent.

Legendary Phillies announcer, Harry Kalas, has just died.

How incredibly sad… article here. I remember being a little kid and falling asleep to the sound of his voice waiting for my mom to come home from working at the mall.

A sad day for Philadelphia.

Wisdom

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
