"I buried my dad today. There was no funeral. It was just my brother and me standing in windswept and freezing rural Illinois. He wanted to be cremated. I don't know why. So this is his box. My brother brought one thing to be buried with him: The sign that my dad would hang on the office doors of all of "his" churches: "Phil Hansen Minister." Darin brought it and I immediately knew why. "He should be buried with this because it's what he cared about: Himself and his title." And so we did. I cried but not for him honestly. I cried because I was so thankful to have a brother who like me still"

"Daddy Yankee--one of the most successful Latin artists ever--was invited to join the Super Bowl halftime but graciously declined. So they did one of his songs without him.
