My friend Morris is a big Stephen Sondheim fan, and he said that Company at the Kendall Square Cinema in Cambridge, MA was sold out! Quite a contrast to the sparely attended screening we saw last week in the outer suburbs. The Kendall Square Cinema has added an extra show for Sunday at noon, and Morris bought a pair of tickets for that.

Today at work I was watching a not very useful video about VMware virtual networking. When I looked to see what else YouTube had pulled up as related material, what I saw between NIC teaming and the Cisco Nexus was a surprise.

Wright was scheduled to be on for just the first hour, but he stayed for two. (I wasn’t going to sit at the computer any later than that, Samjay!) Here’s the first hour, and I think I got all of the commercials out, but I left in Mike Love singing about pretty trees.

I’m certain the reason Stephen Colbert attended Northwestern University was because it’s in Evanston, Illinois, where I was born. That’s what I told Colbert when I saw him in New York in 2007, and he agreed with me.
Colbert gave this year’s commencement speech at Northwestern. Here are edited highlights…
