Isn't it funny when a president does one little thing outside of his area of expertise (think Clinton with the Saxophone on Arsenio hall that one time), the whole world puts it on the news?!?  As a media person, I guess I'm no exception!  Here's the video of President Obama singing with BB King and Mick Jagger at the White House.  The concert last night, as a part of the "Red White & Blues" concert series to honor Black History Month, will air on PBS February 27th.  Click here for more details and a set list for the show.

Happy Fat Tuesday!  This is the last day of the Carnival season in New Orleans and around the world.  Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent.  I might just give up Diet Coke until Easter.  You can learn everything there is to know about the history of Mardi Gras from the following video!

Happy President's Day!  My children don't have school today and neither do many of yours!  They are home snacking like crazy!   Found an article about the favorite snacks of US Presidents....  I had never heard that George W.
