I got tickets to an upcoming Michael Franti & Spearhead in Indianapolis, and figured I should check out the opening band since I'd enjoy it more if I knew their music. Well I was SO EXCITED when I discovered that State Radio has the lead singer from an old favorite, now-disbanded Dispatch! The last time I saw them live was when Chris & I went to the last ever Dispatch show at the Half-Shell in Boston a few years ago. I can't wait to see the opening show next week!

I have been a fan of Dr. Wayne Dyer for years - ever since I first saw a special of his on PBS. I generally have never read many "self=help" books, but Dr Wayne Dyer's messages were so attuned with my own life philosophies that I was immediately drawn to him. This is his latest book, a companion to 10 Secrets for Success & Inner Peace, which has long been my "bible" of sorts. Among my favorite messages are ways in which to eliminate stress from your life and that the relationships that work are the ones that take no work. He has an hour-long weekly radio show that can be listened to on hayhouseradio.com (and podcasts too!).
