Keep the reservation. do go to tanti Baci some time. Last I remember you could byob. Share a frutti di bosco flown from Italy for desert. It's right around the corner from the VV. Village Jazz Shop used to be upstairs, till it closed about 5 years ago... "...Right across 7th Ave. from Smalls at 163 W10th is the jazz shop that would be king. With no set hours of operation, the tiny Village Jazz Shop [now closed] is the place where musicians and patrons mingle among stacks of cds, vintage lps, books, T-shirts, and a collection of appropriate art. Owner and jazz raconteur Russ Musto has a special room dedicated to his heroic rare lp collection which is opened by appointment only -- made in person. He runs the store as an indulgence, stating that he'd be embarrassed to live in a city that didn't have a store like his. It's a one of kind place which graces you with the intangible benefits of mom and pop authenticity...." Gordon Polatnick

Dude, take her to Tanti Baci Caffe 163 W 10th St New York, NY 10014 (212) 647-9651 It is awfully romantic, food is very good, and won't make you scratch your wallet. Be sure to eat in the basement. I bought wife Masha a gift certificate to a local high-falutin' spa. Hour long massage, body wrap, swiss shower[sounds almost dirty!], mani, pedi, etc. I'll be chillin at home, playing some tunes.

That's nice. Who's vouching for you?

Это брат хуёво...

THE COVERAGE HAS BEGUN

I'd say!

I'm thinking the same thing after listening to the Phineas Newborn disc you gave me! Thank you! Yeah, what's the story on that/ did you like the music? Your first time hearing Newborn?

Sweet and Lowdown is the only feature film in history of cinema to mention Buck Clayton.

I only saw her live once, at the Vanguard with Lewis Nash's band, Jimmy Greene[?sp] was there. I wasn't very impressed with her playing, but it could've been an off night for her. Never tried to acquire any of her cds...

I thought Tod was in Mass, which is closer to me, unless he's out West[!] a lot, then he's closer to you.

Many happy Mosaics!!! And the best of health to you, my friend!!!!!!!!

When I was growing up in the old country, from the time I was of 11 till 18 we had in our 400 sf apartment about 2,500 volumes of old books, about a quarter of the collection of my father's uncle that we inherited after he passed away. I, of course became a book-worm... Some books were quite rare; to make our way into the States we sold the collection for $30,000. When we got to Brooklyn we had about 3 grand left, but that felt pretty good. Today the collection like this would be worth about 1,5 to 2 milllion. So I guess selling my music collection would suck, but my friends here would hook me up with some burns of the essential stuff...plus I would become a regular on the BFT forum.

Saw this one used locally for about $90. Can anyone expand on the material, etc., just your impressions? I'm thinking of going back there tomorrow.

Utterly tasteless in my opinion. Yep. I say if there is no response to an attempted joke in, say, 10-20 minutes, the poster might as well delete it.

It may seem strange, but Il Duce to many is almost a lovable fascist. Maye it's because of his jolly physique, maybe because he made trains run on time. Maybe it's Fellini's films. I dunno. Never heard his kid's music...

Nice-looking car, tonym, is this Ford-based?

Simple, grasshopper. And perhaps self-serving. In 1995 BMW stopped producing the E34 model car, and for me the era of the great enthusiast cars has ended with that. Obviously that's only my defined value...

If you want a decent Bug, your best bet wouldn't be ebay; instead I would join an on-line community of VW Bug enthusiasts and buy a car that's been really taken care of and documented. That's what I did before I bought my M6.

Her dad was good in Deliverance, though.

Nice Alpha. Wish you'd kept her, eh?

Boring. Yup!!! They're not automatics, are they? Yup, all of them are automatic -- why?? What Chuck said. Got to have fun.

Boring. Yup!!! They're not automatics, are they?

I have a 19 y.o. red car. Too cold here to work on it now. I'll post a pic later. What's your ride?

Do you know if he had any kids?

SUN RA Televison at its best.
