2011 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 5,700 times in 2011. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 5 trips to carry that many people.

My wife asked me to choose what I wanted to do for my sixtieth birthday. I thought about it for a bit and then I said, “I’d like to celebrate jazz in New York City at a famous club with you.”

So I purchased us tickets for Chris Botti at The Blue Note in Greenwich Village, New York City. I have always been enamored with the rich history of jazz in New York City. 52nd Street, Birdland, The Village Vanguard, Jazz at Lincoln Center, just to name a few of the great jazz haunts.

It should be a special evening :)
