That would mean you stopped watching after...oh, about the 2nd episode!

Happy Birthday and all the best for the coming year!

They eat EVERY meal out, according to the article. Also, they don't keep any of their work clothes at home, but leave them at various dry cleaners. They apparently put on jogging clothes and jog to work, while picking up the work clothes along the way, and then change when they arrive at the office. Odd peeps.

I saw David's Golden Boy tribute show last November at the Iridium, and it was a fine performance! Lou Hayes on drums, with Brian Lynch, Craig Handy, Charles Fambrough, Steve Turre (subbing for Curtis Fuller that night),

Wild finish to the Texas-Nebraska game tonight! When Nebraska kicked the FG to go ahead 12-10, I thought their defense might actually hold Texas. But a kick out of bounds, and a horse collar tackle put Texas into FG range pretty quickly. Colt McCoy made one final pass attempt that appeared to run out the clock, but the refs ruled one second on the clock, and Texas was able to kick a FG to win it, 13-12. Man, if Nebraska had pulled the upset, we might be looking at an Alabama/TCU national championship game. Who woulda expected that??

I believe their prices were due to their usual location in malls, with higher rent than other stores. I don't think bargain shoppers or music fans were their target market. Mall shoppers and other impulse buyers maybe.

when you combine the Hallelujah Chorus and a Vow of Silence.

Hey now!! I think everyone should be able to put in late picks for Thursday games (unless it's already over, I don't even know!). I have no problem with anyone who didn't get it in in time, getting corrected.

Picked up the recent "Radiation" EP from UKZ, which is the band comprised of Eddie Jobson, Trey Gunn (ex King Crimson), Aaron Lippert (Expanding Man), Alex Machacek (Out Trio, with Terry Bozzio and Patrick O'Hearn), and Marco Minnemann. Pretty cool disc, heavy with some PT-ish and KC-ish sounds in spots, and mellower in others. I like Trey Gunn in general, so I hope this project results in some further recordings. Jobson already had a spinoff from THIS group, called U-Z. That one appears to include (or at least guests) John Wetton (!), Tony Levin, Greg Howe, and Minneman. www.ukzband.com

I think there's probably a more appropriate thread than this one (isn't there one about jazzy styled images in non-jazz places or something like that?), but I don't know where to find it, so it's here. Some very cool images in the new Miami Heat intro videos, where each player gets a BN-style album cover: I'd paste them all, but they're in some funky format, had to transfer those two to imageshack first.

Coming from you, that means alot.

LOL - Humorous oddities - that's why I like live chatting with youse guys! Did you find the secret message? Paul, I Seriously Searched Over. Finally Found.

Bfefck still rocks, despite Sting.

Seconded, and thanks vajerzy!

I will also donate shortly again. I like the live chat when we do get together, but it isn't as frequent as it used to be, that's for sure. I think everyone's just busier or got other things going on. Dunno if it's worth keeping for the few times we use it...

Appreciate the support, Van B, Nojjy, and vajerzy! Sorry I messed up - I was out of sorts, and busy travelling for the holiday, and just didn't get my picks in before the hour cutoff. Didn't know there was one, but I do now! ...oh, and just for the record, i BelIeve that free for all must have some Guilt or somethinG, sincE he foRgot to join our esteemeD group of prognostICating football-niKs.

Happy Birthday, John! (and Happy late Birthday, Buzz!)

I went in this morning to make my picks for today's 3 games, but the board won't let me! When was the cutoff to make picks? I thought you could make them up until kickoff? For the record I'm taking Green Bay, Dallas, and NYG.

Got an email that there's a 15% off sale on all boxsets at the moment. Sale is good though Nov 26th, for anyone interested. Also as Joe Bip mentioned, the Buy 2 Get 1 Free is going on through the end of the month. Gotta buy the 2 before Nov 30th, and you get the free one in January. Weird.

Ours closed about a year ago for the same reason - new mall ownership jacked the rent up, and FYE said no thanks. Our mall has no music or book stores anymore, which always seemed like mall staples to me. Our FYE didn't particularly have a great inventory, but they did buy used items and there was no haggling or subjectivity on the buyer's part as they had some database that told them what things were valued at and what price was to be offered, which I liked.

The only reason I can see for having a landline anymore might be for a home security system to be able to dial out in the event of an emergency. I don't see a need for one otherwise, at least in my case.

Happy Birthday!

Don't agree with that. Beyond the Wall isn't bad, but I'd take Songbook, Pursuance, Triology, Stars & Stripes Live, Black Hope, or African Exchange Student over it.
