Listen live tonight (2/26/05) at midnight (pst) at KEXP Radio. Should be a good one.

I would guess it was either an accident or he had a terminal illness. I don't see him as the suicidal type.

Who shoots himself in the chest with a shotgun to commit suicide? I'm so very sad. Just finished "Hey Rube". Why is it the greats always die too young?

Got them in yesterdays mail. Thanks again.

Still waiting for mine.

Gee dan, that's swell. But honestly, I could use your good vibes a lot more than your sarcasm, so thanks, but no thanks. Everyone else, thanks so much. Milo is a variation on Miles. No family connection or anything like that - Milo is an old, yet unique name that has a cute and endearing ring to it. We narrowed it down to three (Milo, Callen and Cole), but once he came out he just seemed like a Milo. Ho ho, back to diapers and laundry. -john

Our son, Milo Parson Ewing was born January 30th at 1:26PM. Off work for the next 8 weeks. Since that is where I usually post from I will be around a little less, but still popping in betwwen feedings and changings. Here's a photo of Milo, Melissa and John for all to enjoy. Thanks again for all your support.

Quit being difficult. But seriously, didn't Blue Note PAY the musicians for REHEARSALS before the recording? That is why Blue Notes sounds so polished and Prestiges can sound rough around the edges. And Rudy Van Gelder was a big part of it too (although there are a few Prestiges that were engineered by RVG, correct?)

Black Saint Leo

This guy's wife came home early during one of his yank sessions and he quickly stuffed the disc into the first case he saw. When his wife came in she popped the Doris Day movie on and was confronted with the sleazy underbelly of her husband's tittie fetish. Luckily the guy was fast on his feet and fawned outrage toward Safeway. Little did he know that it would lead to a newspaper article (not to mention him and his wife having sex for the first time in 8 years). B-)

Right on! I would add only on thing to that list: Where Is Brooklyn?

WE DEMAND THE TRAINWRECK!!!!! Just joking

Exactly.

Violent Drawings Lead to Felony Charges AP - Jan 25, 2005 OCALA, Fla. (AP) - Two boys were arrested for making pencil-and-crayon stick figure drawings depicting a 10-year-old classmate being stabbed and hung, police said. The children, charged with a felony, were taken from school in handcuffs. The 9- and 10-year-old boys were arrested Monday and charged with making a written threat to kill or harm another person. They were also suspended from school. One drawing showed the two boys standing on either side of the other boy and "holding knives pointed through" his body, according to a police report. The figures were identified by written names or initials. Another drawing showed a stick figure hanging, tears falling from his eyes, with two other stick figures standing below him. Other pieces of scrap paper listed misspelled profanities and the initials of the boy who was allegedly threatened. The boys' parents said they thought the children should be punished by the school and families, not the legal system.

Then maybe some of her friends also would like to enjoy your collection? Funny you should say that. Sometimes my wife throws parties and her and all her girls friends lay around the house and enjoy my ample collection. Of course they all have different tastes. Some like the hard driving stuff. Others like the soft and slow approach. Luckily my collection has something for everybody. But I'll tell ya', those girls give my collection quite the workout. Some of them even want to listen to my record collection as well, but I save that for the mrs.

Don't you realize how old Lon and Chuck are?

It's not the size that matters, but the quality of your collection. It's just so happens that I have a exceptional (and quite LARGE) collection. My wife seems to enjoy it. She brags to her friends all the time. B-)

Sorry, I simply hate the Three Sounds.

Oh yeah, anything by The Three Sounds

Thanks for map, Peter! NOW I'll know how to get to NYC! That north-by-northeast drive can be a b___! Yeah, but no one in Philly ever actually goes to New York (unless you’re a gigging musician). Most of the people I knew and grew up with in Philly would froth at the mouth when I would tell them I was going to New York. "Why you wanna go there? We got everything we need right here….Pass me the ketchup for my cheesesteak Vinnie." Strong provincial attitudes prevail there.

Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Where Is Brooklyn?!!! Also, A New Conception - Sam Rivers Trainwreack - Tyrone Washington

Adam ol' buddy, can't believe I didn't recognize ya'. How are things over at One Final Note? I encourage everyone to buy your stuff!

In other words, hold off your sale until Johnny has cleared out his inventory. That's funny.
