Accordion Kings & Queens

Busy day today. Breakfasts at Mom and Dad's, then an honor society luncheon. Over 20 years ago, I was inducted into this honor society for my profession, however, I needed to be inducted again. I was informed by national that records are not kept for such a long time period, especially if I did not renew my annual membership. So today, I was inducted again. That was ok with me, but, I would have liked to re-join the University of Texas chapter, rather than Houston. Nevertheless, I was proud to be honored. After, that an afternoon visit with my sister. The evening consisted of the missed unveiling of the Barack Obama bust. I'll just have to settle for a viewing tomorrow.
Then a cajun, polka, conjunto, and zydeco concert. See the video above. It features Cedryl Ballou on lyrics from an earlier performance. He was in Houston tonight with the Accordion Kings and Queens concert. The video below features Houston's own Johnny Ramirez. He is the 2008 winner of the Big Squeeze Competition for amature accordion players 25 and under.

Then, I went home for a nap. Last, a late,late,late dinner at Myi's.

Dee-Litefully Haunted

Oh what an awful and disappointing news day this has been:
Libby's remarks on Sotomayor; vanished plane from Rio; North Korea; GM; Dr. Tiller, and more. While being saturated with such negative incidents, my mind keeps traveling back to 1990 concert I attended. I cannot get the images out of my head. Yet, what really haunts me is the guilt of being fixated on Groove is... The bad news is I dissappoint myself.
