i like reading special magazines about various famous people. i read two today, about musicians from different genres. the first one was bout billy joel. i had bought it a week earlier so it was time to read it. i learned some things while reading it, such as he has been married 4 times. so before, and after, the one to model christie brinkley. also two suicide attempts, before he was famous. and i liked mention of a presidential honor, the kennedy center honors. as well as a banner hanging in the rafters at madison square garden, in honor of his many performances there, lately a monthly gig. and being the final performer at two other new york venues, shea stadium and nassau coliseum. i had seen billy in concert when living in suburban chicago. it was with elton john, the last of three sold-out shows in rosemont. the other one i read was about loretta lynn, bought earlier today. liked seeing mention of loretta being awarded the president's medal of freedom. i learned how both had songs that were 'banned' but this made the songs even more popular. i bought it at the barnes and noble in eagan. i take a good look around, and got a few more ideas about what i might buy eventually. the next special magazine on my list to acquire would be about another musician, eminem.
i had some other things to do, such as get to the post office. i made it there before going to the book shop, but there was no orders to pick up. in the mid-afternoon i watched the iowa vs. minnesota football game on Fox. iowa won a close one, 13-10. took bad the pick-6 did not stand near the end, but they still won on a field goal. i went to aldi for my weekly grocery order after the game was done, and having some pizza. later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 54 cents.
