anything written by paul secor or brownie.

I'd read those :tup

Thanks for both compliments. I have to admit that I feel that I'm a mediocre writer on my best days.

I've enjoyed brownie's writings here, and would buy and read a collection of his life in the jazz world and his forays into other realms.

Another book that I'd buy and read, should it ever exist, would be The Nessa Chronicles. The few times that Chuck has stretched out on Organissimo have been special moments. He's a true writer, and as much as I enjoy his everyday pithy comments, I hope that he'll do more stretching out some day.

Books that you WISHED existed, that you'd actually buy, (or perhaps they do exist?? - !!!)

A book that tells teenagers that their college educated parents aren't stupid and just might know how to get accepted to college.

Nah.

That'll never happen.

What was I thinking?

or "college grads, did you ever consider repaying your parents?"
