I’ve been donating $1/day to various non-profits with Dollar a Day. Simple and easy thing to do.

Whiplash
Tammy and I went to see Whiplash last night at the renovated Uptown Theater1. Really good film about the ridiculous effort that must be put in to be great at something, in this case music. In addition to the storyline your treated to wonderful music and some stunning drumming on screen. Purchased the soundtrack on the way out of the theater.
