Brandon I'm glad you weren't hurt. It doesn't seem unreasonable to me to have them fix your bike. If they don't see it that way find yourself a lawyer and give them ten times the stress that they gave you.

So based on what they'd seen go down, the witnesses didn't rise from their seats and walk up to the driver and tell him he might wanna stop the bus? Good question.

How many editions of the Four Brothers were there?

That might be a good idea but it's really tough to say. Your approach would probably vary depending on the individual that your dealing with. Probably something with a good groove and not too out there unless the person in question is very receptive.

Temperature wise it's not too bad with low 60's but it's been windy every day and the wind is making people cranky here.

Happy Birthday Sheldonm.

When was the last time Byrd recorded?

Sounds like you've got a pretty cool wife Ghost.

I lived on and off in California over the years and experienced my fair share of earthquakes the biggest was the 7.1 that hit LA and killed some people. The ones that I remembered were a 6.2 and 6.0 that occured on consecutive days when I was living in the Imperial Valley. The first one hit on a Monday night and it made for a rather busy night at the radio station that I was working for at the time. That night after things settled down I went home and went to bed but I made sure I could leave immediately because I had a feeling we weren't done and in the early morning hours my hunch was proven correct because the next one hit and in short order I grabbed my car keys and was out the door and on my way to work. It was rather spooky driving to work that morning because the power was out and it was pitch black. On my way to work I was the only one on the road,everybody else was pulled over and that was a very uneasy feeling. Once the lights came on the phones started ringing off the hook and all hell broke loose. In an ironic sidelight to that morning are sign on guy went on the air and made a quip to the extent that it felt like earthquake weather .Shortly after he made that remark the second earthquake hit and he was nailed by a big,solid wooden rack that held our recorded commercials and he got coldcocked. Fortunately he was not seriously hurt. Earthquakes are just one more reason I don't miss California.

Alas poor Jazzmoose,we knew him well.

Damn! Either Joe's fatter than his picture on the CD cover indicates, or he's pretty fast on the draw at those porn sites.... Jazzmoose,Jazzmoose.

Nah he should try to get Futureman.

I dunno Doc both those boys are fond of bringing steel chairs to the match you better watch out!!!

I love tripe! I'll make you pepper pot soup some time. That's some tripe! --eric Menudo Amigp.

One of life's constants is somebody out there isn't going to like you no matter what you do so I wouldn't worry about it too much. While Blue Note gets a lot of mentions it isnt the only catfish in this sea musically speaking and if I'm not into the political discussions which lately has been most of the time I just shine it on.I enjoy the diverse ideas on this board and if the board has some critics well then it has some critics and who the hell doesn't anyway. In a nutshell don't worry about it.

It doesn't personally bother me but I think it should go if no other reason than out of respect for the female members on the board. If the male board members want to attract more women to the board to share in all this music discussion then these are the type of things that they should be mindful of. l

I get paid to do it so party on.

Barry Bonds passed his godfather on the all time home run list.

Cool.Thanks B3-er.

Horace should have been the first or at least one of the very first to know.

Sorta kinda. They are now in the hands of my accountant.Hopefully the news will be good-hopefully.

I'd like to see the Jimmy Smith and Kenny Dorham cd's get RVG'd. Has Horace Silver's "Horacescope" and Andrew Hill's "Lift Every Voice and Sing" been RVG"d?

Agreed.

Maybe but he sang them pretty damn good and they swung like hell.

The Mercury set is selling on the BMG music club for $39.95.
