Just read that Ortiz has been moved out of the intensive care unit at Massachusetts General Hospital. "He remains in good condition," they say.

Give that man a C-gar!

All the best CJ!

That's unfortunate. You probably already know that a low sodium diet can help reduce fluid retention and help control your blood pressure. Good luck.

You resurrect a 10-year-old thread with a terrible title just to complain that you got poison ivy? Oh well, so it's not a total loss, enjoy this:

HELL YEAH!!!!!

Happy Birthday Kev.

That's a Bob Douglas photo taken in 1948, so Kenny would have been 16 or 17. That's Tommy Flanagan on piano.

His gallbladder and part of his intestines were removed. The Red Sox flew him back to Boston in the late afternoon, and tonight he's resting at Mass General. Prayers for Papi. "Six years ago, David Ortiz's spirit and resolve helped us all begin to heal from the Boston Marathon bombing. Today, I want to join many others in wishing him a speedy recovery of his own. Get well soon, Papi." - Barak Obama

Welcome update: Ortiz's father, Leo, told reported outside the clinic that his son was out of danger and there was no damage to his major organs. He said he had no idea why someone would have shot at his son. "He is out of surgery and stable. He is resting," Leo Ortiz said. "’Big Papi’ will be around for a long time."

Former Red Sox slugger David Ortiz shot in ambush in Dominican Republic.

He might be referring to the misspelling of Russell's first name ("Geroge") and the word "feeling" ("feelling"). Still, I agree with your point. Honestly, at first glance I thought the postcard was a fake. The idea that Dolphy would send Russell a postcard from Europe in 1961 that mentions the Lydian Chromatic Concept and the title of a recording he made the previous year seems a little too cool.

Now this is dapper.

You're forgetting this trio date:

Typical onset of Lewy body dementia is between the ages of 50 and 85. It's a particularly nasty form of dementia, combining many of the symptoms of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. After this kind of long struggle, may his rest be truly peaceful.

Happy Birthday Jim! I hope it's an exciting one!

"Interesting" in what way?

Two things you should know: The Arts Endowment is legally prohibited from lobbying Congress or participating in advocacy for increasing its budget. The President’s 2020 budget proposes the elimination of the National Endowment for the Arts.

I always liked this photo. I imagine that Lee just said something nasty, and Curtis reacts with a "eww!".

Who cares about the title? Are you going to stare at the cover or enjoy the photography within?

This photo was taken by Kathy Sloan at the Keystone Korner in 1975. It's fairly easy to find such info with a google image search.

Really? Why? Cyrus is a social activist, offering her time and money to support programs for LGBT youth, the homeless, animal welfare, etc. Sounds like the kind of spirit that characterized a lot of the artists who performed at Woodstock.
