Just a few things to consider:

• This James Brown biography
• A detour downtown for the last week of the Strandbeest reanimations. Here is the schedule. The videos are kinda weird and great.
• The Chicago History Museum opened the Lincoln’s Undying Words exhibit recently, and it looks awesome.  Ohh it is an exhibit full of inspiring and powerful quotes… you had me at ‘four score.’
• In light of the HBO documentary Confirmation, some SCOTUS themed book club additions: The Brethren by Bob Woodward or The Oath: The Obama White House and the Supreme Court by Jeffery Toobin (also wrote The Nine) or for those Ken Burn’s inspired Supreme Power: Franklin Roosevelt and the Supreme Court by Jeff Sheshol.

Another SNL skit that I was telling Joan about:

Zac Efron feet by footfame

One of my favorite jams and some well-played historical juxtaposition; check out this film short set in Belfast 1978.
