Big Al

Because he didn't want to let his star player go unless and not a second before he absolutely had to. This is so completely out-of-character for Jones (listening to others' advice, doing the right thing, using common sense) that I'm not entirely convinced Jones was of sound mind and body when this happened, much less present at the firing. For all I know, it might've been as big a shock to him as it was to us!

Thanks gents. And y'all will get my bell-bottoms when you pry them from my cold dead legs.

Any opinions on the Getz "Dynasty" set? Stan with an organ trio; on the surface it looks interesting!

Profuse apologies for never posting any guesses. I can't say there was too much I enjoyed on this BFT (even strapping myself down with duck tape for the aptly-named Bruise track couldn't make me sit through all of that!), but there were some real gems to be had! Unfortunately, I've lost the notes I started and I think I accidentally deleted the song files off my HD. So I'll download 'em again, listen with new ears, and hopefully hear something I missed the first time. This has happened before, where a BFT made little to no impression on me until AFTER I read the answers!

Thanks!!! :party:

Thanks Conn!

Well, heck, I missed your birthday thread altogether! I hope yours was a good one! Love that baby picture in your avatar! I need to dig out your CD again, it's been too long since I was serenaded by "La Vie en Rose!"

A big hug right back atcha, mein freund! What would you do without me? I think the better question is what would I do without you? I wouldn't know about nearly the Tjader discs in my collection if you hadn't hipped me to so many of 'em! One of these days, we're coming across the pond to enjoy REAL German bier and spin records with you until we go deaf!

And a Big Thank You for you, my friend! THANKS! :party:

C'mon y'all, sing along with me. I still don't understand why my birthday party came to an abrupt end when I started singing this on the karaoke machine. (Actually, it's the first time I've ever had a karaoke machine tell me "no fucking way" when I selected this song to sing!)

If me AND Alex are both in there, then it really is a jungle!!!

Wow, that compliment means LOTS! Thank you! I don't post as often as I used to (you'd never know it by THIS thread), so what you say really means a lot (either that, or you're thanking me for staying away! ).

All's I gots is a flannel shirt, and they won't let me in wearing that, the snobs!

What he said!!!

TY Holy Ghost

swooooooooon If Bright Moments can't find that picture of Katherine Heigl, this will MORE than suffice! And she's British, too!!! She looks and sounds like Jane Seymour 30 years ago. YOW!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you, my man!!! :party:

Thanks!!!! Ah, how I'd love to visit Scotland sometime!

Thank you, GOM!!! Tell Red I'll raise a glass in his honor tonight while re-listening to the Sonny Clark Night Lights episode.

Thanks Harold!!! :party:

THANKS, AGG!!! We're gonna get down there this summer, I promise!

It was, thanks!!!

Thanks, my man!

Thanks! Whatta picture! However, it'll be happier if you bring back that lovely picture of Ms. Heigl!
