Springsteen Bossed by Fan Requests at BJC
Last night, Bruce Springsteen performed at the Bryce Jordan Center.
The Centre Daily Times reported that he would play songs by request, confusing his E Street Band.
And the Boss is sometimes having fun at others’ expense, such as when he closed the 3 ½ hour performance with a medley of tunes including “Good Golly Miss Molly” and “C.C. Rider,” seemingly confusing the band and inexplicably leaving the crowd without iconic tunes such as “Born in the USA” and “Thunder Road.”

Penn State and the Process of Life
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
