Thanks for all the replies, yes....very sad! Mpozi was originally from Philly and had his hands in a lot of things beyond photography. If you're familiar with the band The Roots, he did photographs for their debut cd as well as some background voices on their cd "Do you Want More???"....very talented dude and a great friend! m~

...true enough.....Gods way of paying back a guy relaxing in his "vacation" home while thousands of those he helped screw scrape to hold it together! m~ ..this should probably be in the political forum and I posted it here by accident.

I agree as far as the inductions go....but they have a ton of cool memorabilia! m~

This just popped up on my pc at work...msnbc says heart attack, I would have predicted suicide! Enron founder Ken Lay has died in Aspen, Colorado, a spokesman for Lay's family said today. Lay was awaiting sentencing after being found guilty of conspiracy and fraud.

...also make sure to leave food outside and don't forget to call the humane society with a description of your cat. m~

David, When our cat was lost, we put up probably 300 flyers around the neighborhood offering a reward. I think the reward makes a big difference between people seeing the cat/doing nothing and actually taking the time to call. Had many calls (false alarms) but one good one (3 days later)....there he was, sleeping on someone's front porch through the coldest period of the year....good luck!

David, thanks! Don't give up hope, our 16 year old cat got out duing the coldest night of this past winter (-5) and was missing for 3 days. It had never been outside at night one time in it's life and we ended up finding it sleeping on some lady's front porch after three days or so.....amazing....! I'll keep my finger's crossed for you~ m~

Just found out a few hours ago that a good friend and fellow photographer passed away at the age of 34 . Not sure why I'm posting here as I'm sure other than (jazzmessenger or Rachel) would possibly know him. His name is Mpozi Tolbert, a 6'6" guy with dreadlock....very imposing but the kindest person I personally know. Spent time in NYC during the 9/11 disaster and was always working to help anyone he could. I'm not sure at this time why he died and only know that he passed away in the news room of the Indy Star and couldn't be revived.....terrible loss for his family, friends and co-workers! I worked along side him several times in the past few years and just spent much time with him a few weeks ago....damn! m~ http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti...448/1006/NEWS01

...what a shock!

I don't think they would show this on ESPN....

....count me as one proud and happy to be an American!!!

...who or what is Monday???

I enjoyed it as well! Not because I thought it was a masterpiece, I just enjoyed it. m~

A great place to see a show...but very tiny, get there early! Wish I could make it! Mark~

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

Man, that's a long time....the only thing I've done this long is breathe! Congrats to a good man and his wife!!! m~

...go for it!!!

This is an image I made of Hank at the end of May, performing with Joe Lovano at Lincoln Center for an upcoming Blue Note cd.....just thought it was interesting. m!

...guess that makes it alright then!

WOW....so basically your collection is filled with music you probably didn't pay for and the musicians probably weren't compensated for....very impressive!

Laton, hope all is well! Have a great day!!!

Seems like a spending the $12.00 for this would making things right and end all this~~~Come on, do the right thing!!!! m~

He's not stupid but at times a little slow~ I'm sure he's well aware of how to go about it....just chooses to go about it in his own special way. m~
