"Birth of the Cool" is an album that collects the twelve sides recorded by the Miles Davis nonet (featuring Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz and others) for Capitol Records in 1949 and 1950. The music is considered seminal. This blog is dedicated to that spirit -- keeping things "cool" by blog birthing. If you've got somethin' cool to share, blow on.

Andrew Sullivan - His blog will be missed
Today I learned that Andrew Sullivan will not be blogging any longer. This after 15 years at the helm. Andrew has always billed himself as a "true" conservative, which alone has put him at odds with the right wing greed-heads who try to pass themselves off as conservatives. Of course Andrew being an out, and fiercely proud, gay man also set him apart. But underneath all the convenient labels that get tossed around, Andrew is in a way a closet liberal. Anyway, I will miss his blog. You can read his farewell post right here. It's quite moving.
