What would a year or two in the Midwest be without seeing a live recording of A Prairie Home Companion? It's a Midwest staple and something we are going to be lucky enough to see tonight when Garrison Keilor and crew take the stage at the Milwaukee Theatre.
I've been asking around and it turns out a lot of people in the Midwest don't know who Garrison Keilor is. Shocking really, considering he is a pretty accurate embodiment of Midwest folk. At least, that is my impression so far from spending ten months here.
In other news, an old college friend wrote on my Facebook wall and insisted that I not vote for Obama. He says it is a big mistake. He also told me to trust him. I inquired about an alternative and have yet to hear back from him, but this blog will feature most of the correspondence, unless of course it is sent via Facebook message. I guess then it is private communication. We will see.
