i hope to leave fond memories and far better fulfilling lives for my daughter and grandchildren, and i hope my lifelong musical collection will find its way into the hands of someone(s) who can appreciate it. fat chance of the latter!

agreed

i just finished listening to(and recording) last week's program. this makes very lovely early sunday morning listening. it would be hard to imagine a more satisfying, or moving program. thank you for your efforts, and your taste.

my kind of music. ...a big thank you, ghostly one.

aloc's everyday car has 200,000+ miles and a dozen years on it and he isnt looking.

I thought you were going to say that aloc no longer drinks Pepsi, its the generic brand til further notice. you are somewhat accurate. today i'm sucking coca cola in a personal attempt to change the world.

i'm retired and was in a conservative fund which was down 5% thru monday, when i moved most everything into a laddered, long treasury fund, which may have been a bonehead move. now, it's all about the survival of my modest nestegg.

hearing monk play standards like 'you are too beautiful, is one of this life's great pleasures. happy birthday, wkcr.
