I think my next thread will be: Insulting All the People That Alfredson Depends Upon to Make A Living. let's see - well, actually, I think we've already done that -

allright...contributions are up to .98 - keep up the good work, people. "What the world needs now..." this is working out even better than the Prickly Heat Telathon -

"But I am interested in improvement and if anyone has any specific suggestions." well, more features on me. more photos of me. more reviews of me. more cover stories on me. aside from that, I like the magazine just fine...

well, get her pregnant and she won't be able to play as well - first, she'll have to sit 5 feet from the table, and second, she'll be puking so much she won't be able to concentrate. Than, when labor kicks in, move the pieces around so it's instant checkmate -

also, I believe he did a nice piece on Bill Challis -

Philco Sergeant Bilko Steve Biko

sorry, that was 10,000 Lire -

wow, Brownie just gave $10,000 - who's next?

can't stand Lees but I still like a lot of the profiles - good one in particular on Frank Rosolino -

I think of myself as the white Gene Quill -

boy, I picked a bad day to give up amphetamines -

hope I'm in the right Organissimo category; moderators, let me know - where's everybody? Nuclear war? Cloud of mustard gas?

and now I feel like Strom Thurmond - must be the filibuster -

why do I feel like Norman Bates all of a sudden? Well, maybe because I wouldn't hurt a fly -

and by the way, I'll volunteer to handle the monthly email, Jim, if you're overwhlemed - if I can get a list and figure out how the hell to do it -

allright, I just contributed $12.50 - Jim, I meant to send $10, I think I just ordered something else, but don't worry, just take the money and run -

allright boys and girls, I feel like Spanky in the Little Rascals saying, "let's put on a play." But instead we're gonna put our money where our mouths are (no hooker jokes, please) and start a round-the-clock telathon pledge drive. Pledge your dough and than post here about how much you pledged and when - and than commit to a monthly or a bi-monthly or whatever - need at least an extra $150/month. If we raise $300 a month Jim can take a vacation. $600 a month and he can have another kid - $1000 a month and he can tell us all to go to hell and than close the site down - allright, who's first?

well, let's start a fund-raising thread for Organissimo - Jim, I know it's tough sometimes to "bite the hand that feeds you," but I think Pete is OK with all the back and forth here, and nobody would hold you personally responsible for opinions expressed on this site by others - I can tell you're having a rough time, but x-ing this site would be self-defeating, throwing out the baby with the bathwater, cutting off your nose - well, you get the idea. I get paid this week and will contribute as I, like some others, have definitely been remiss. I will even pledge a monthly, if that helps (better you than NPR which is in pledge week right now - whoops, don't wanna get you in any trouble there too how about putting together an email list of those of us who pledge, say, $5/$10 a month or every two months, or whatever, and than sending a reminder? and I wouldn't worry, once again, so much about what industry people might see here; I mean, I speak my mind, and I haven't had a gig in three years -

well than - me - gave up the tenor because there's too many tenor players - figured I'm swimming in a smaller, non-Coltrane pond now -

is it true that on the first two Capitol boxes they retained the bad reverb? I never bought 'em, and recently stocked up on good LP versions off of Ebay; German and Parlophone pressings that beat any CD single disc reissue, of course; but I have not heard those boxes -

are we still talking about white alto players?

forgot about that one - as a matter of fact I have it tattooed on my left bicep -

still sealed DVD about Benny Carter; narrated by Burt Lancaster; Rhapsody Films Digital Remaster $10 shipped conus. Paypal preferred; email me at alowe@maine.rr.com

last possibility - Yes Men Must Vacate - this one makes the most sense -

or maybe, Yellow Moneys Masturbate Vicariously (once again, consult Larry for sources) -
