There’s a load of music coming your way this weekend — Poco, Pure Prairie League and Firefall today, New Smyrna Jazz Fest , singing Whos — but I’m afraid I’m going to miss it all as I prepare for, attend, and recover from Kevin Smith’s talk in Orlando tomorrow.
Yahoo is offering a free coupon for a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee, good for today only. You have to log in with your Yahoo ID to get it, but I’ve found that coffee drinkers will go to any lengths for coffee.

Tomorrow kicks off Banned Books Week, wherein we celebrate all the great works of literature that have bugged somebody enough to want them gone. I’m glad to see “Catcher in the Rye” still valiantly holding on to its top ten spot but I’m sorry to see J.K. Rowling miss the list for the second straight year. Pop culture witchcraft just isn’t making the waves it used to, I guess.
I look forward to this week every year as way to find new good books I hadn’t heard of. If you’ve skipped any of the classic banned books, Google can help you find ’em.
