Happy Birthday.

My younger son was born on April 4th.

Thank you. And a very happy Easter to you too. And to everyone!

The only side effect is that it makes you sterile. (Just kidding.) ((But it IS from Microsoft...))

Never had that one; never even heard of it before.

Got to agree with both of these. "Hot and Cool" is quite worth getting, particularly for Carl Perkins, and "This Time the Drum's On Me" is VERY worth it. I'm with the school of thought that says since there's so little mid-50's Dexter on record, one might as well get it all.

I had no idea... Glad to hear it was caught in time and that you are recovering. My very best wishes go out to you! (And congrats on getting the Anita O'Day box! It's a keeper!)

Take a leaf from Lisa Simpson's book: "Coltrane"

Mobley

Love the bottom pictograph one. Kind of says it all.

Wonderful! Congrats and best wishes!

No, I don't have a single favorite. Too hard to choose.

I find myself recognizing a lot of his photos, but must admit to being only vaguely aware of the name.

"334" by Thomas Disch. Hardly sf at all. Also "The Space Merchants" by Pohl & Kornbluth. Might be too "sci-fi" for you though, as it presents a nightmare future in which corporations and manipulative advertising have taken over society, and we all know that couldn't happen, right? Then there's that OTHER Edgar Pangborn post-apocolyptic novel, "Davy," which is so light and happy that it hardly qualifies as dystopian, despite the setting. It almost makes you wish you could be lucky enough to live in such a world.

BTW, since when is sex an "addiction"?

Night of the Singing Dead

Probably.

I'd give my left nut to have Tiger and Jack go toe to toe, both their primes, using today's equipment. That's the only way the "who's best" argument can ever be resolved. I'd even throw Hogan or Bobby Jones into that mix. If you've ever seen either of their swings, you know why. Oh, most definitely throw in Ben Hogan! Can't forget him.

I don't care what anyone says, I still like Kind of Blue.

Yes! But no doubt I'll be getting this Select, despite the overlap with my collection.

"59"???? That's just not right. BTW, Al Green did a nice cover of "The Letter" way back when.

When I was a little kid I used to get Daniel Boone and Davey Crockett mixed up. (The former was a "man---was a big man," the latter was king of the wild frontier. That's the way to keep'em straight.)

I also really dig the Conn. 10", Tom. A friend was good enough to burn me a copy of Frivolous Sal.

Well, what do you expect? They only did it cuz of fame.

Always thought that song sounded suspiciously like The Modern Lovers' "Roadrunner."
