Metro Station-Metro Station, Billy Squier-Don't Say No, Bread-Guitar Man, Ambrosia-Ambrosia

So much has happened since I last blogged! Saturday night there was a going away celebration for my sister and I was challenged to eat 3 and 1/2 pieces of corn in 3 minutes. The corn never had a chance! Oh also on Saturday day we went to the Statue of Liberty. We had gone a couple of years back and didn't know you needed a reservation to go inside the statue, so we made one and went again. Well my advice is to skip going inside. I went when I was a kid and you could walk up a million stairs and go into the crown, which was cool because the inside of the statue is pretty cool and you see it all the way up. Now all they let you do is go inside the base, and you can kind of see up into the statue itself but not really. Plus you have to go through security a twice (once before getting on the boat, and once on the island to go into the statue) and all that waiting gets to be a bit much. Sunday I went for a bike ride with my daughter though prospect park, which was a lot of fun, and then on Sunday night I went to the Mets game in Comcast's luxury box, which was not very luxurious. It was the Motel 6 of Luxury boxes, but still it was fun to go to the game. Then last night the wife and I went to see Rickey Gervais in concert. He was quite funny, although his act was almost identical to the one I saw on tape from England, except much shorter because he cut out a lot of parts about English celebrities. I was kind of hoping he would replace it with parts about American celebrities, but no such luck. Sad news for my loyal readers, I am going on vacation next week and probably will not be able to blog all week!

Of the four albums, the Billy Squier album was the best, with Bread coming in a not so close second. Metro Station followed and Ambrosia brought up the rear. Overall kind of a let down after a nice run of albums. 16, 14 , 12 and 11 on a scale of 1-20.
