Cute for a good cause

Bono and his lovely wife, high school sweetheart, Ali. She has a clothing company, Edun, and it's mission is to encourage trade with Africa. They have made that really cute bag she's carrying along with Louis Vuitton  to help out Africa some more. So buy a bag. Save the world. Or just look adoringly at those adorable people.

FANatic

My man, Bono, turned fifty this month - the guy's getting up there. On Friday, while rehearsing for another swing through America on his rocket ship for the incredible 360 tour, he hurt his back and had emergency neurosurgery somewhere in Munich. He can afford the best of care, of course, so I'm sure he's getting everything he needs. I hope all of those years jumping up and down on stage for my benefit didn't permanently damage him. I hope he'll be up and around and back to normal soon. I'm trying not to worry, but it seems like everytime I turn on the radio or walk into a store or even when I snuggled on the couch the other night with my other man, my main man, Shawn, and he hit play on the DVD, I hear his voice. Singing. Jumping up and down.

Here he is on April 30th entertaining another pretty cool guy.

Take care. Rest. And get back on your rocket ship soon. 

Fast Cash

I saw U2 on Saturday Night Live a couple of weeks ago and realized that I am woefully unprepared for the upcoming concert. I got their new CD a few months ago, but haven't had it on for awhile, so I don't know some of the songs yet. Bad fan. What if the Jumbotron catches me and I'm singing the wrong words? So I popped it back in to the car and started my homework. There's a line in one of the songs where Bono talks about punching the keys on an ATM machine. I wonder if he wrote that line? I wonder if he really goes to ATM machines? Needs $100 fast cash on the way into a Dublin bar? $60 allowance for the kids? $1000 bucks for a little present for the wife? Cool mil to save some children in Africa?
