Butterfly Kisses or The Christmas Shoes.
In that vein, I once sang “True Companion” by Marc [sic] Cohn [sic] at a friend’s wedding. It was their sincere request, so I did it irony-free and full-throated and straight-faced. Hardest performance of my life, hands down.

Crowdsourcing: need a song for a wedding
This weekend I’ll be heading to North Carolina to celebrate the wedding of one of my college roommates, one of the all-time great guys in the history of guys.
They actually got married in private a little while ago and are having the big celebration now. Near as I can tell—this is all from a Facebook invite, so there is some uncertainty—there is a circus theme of some kind for...

Public transit: need a ruling
I’m looking to start taking the train more often, for reasons. It’s been a while since I’ve been a CTA regular and I’m out of date on etiquette, so let me run this by you:
