Steve was out past his bedtime getting down in Omaha.  (And, in this case, 'getting down' means sitting and enthusiastically tapping his foot and nodding his head.)

Joel is reading Buddhist Monk stuff, while Steve is listening to a biography of Robert (R.) Crumb. Both equally transcendent and enlightening!

That leads in to talk about great artists, and what is sometimes required to get there.

Steve met Eric Moyer, who is running against U.S. Rep Mike Flood in Nebraska's First District.  Joel has been involved in acting work with Eric in the past, and Eric has Joel and Steve's enthusiastic endorsement!  Go to one of his town halls, he's going to do good work!  His campaign is up against big money - any help at all on the campaign is appreciated!

Finally Joel and Steve attended the No Kings rally in Lincoln yesterday, it was truly delightful to see So Many People out!
