Happiness with the family!!

There are occasional buys at Record & Tape Exchange. It is in the corner of a strip mall, next to a Trader Joe's. Thought about popping in there today, but they closed a little early (5pm) for the holiday. Another possibility is CD Cellar, a short drive in Falls Church (Broad Street also known as Route 7 or Leesburg Pike). Haven't been there in awhile. Welcome to Fairfax.

Happy Birthday, Robert!!!

Jim, No recent "patronizing" comments on either of these threads. If you'd care to share, how are you doing now numbers-wise?I got in late last weekend. [And understood, if you'd care not to.] Patrick

13 out of 20 as well. And apparently I "taste like snozzberries".

Happy Birthday Stefan. Stay cool.

Happiness PQ!!!

another tremendous night for the NL

FWIW (admittedly, absolutely nothing...say it again!!!), those mediocre Cavs were the playoff opponent that gave the World Champions the best series in the playoffs. Bynum back may have made it a bit more interesting, but would it really have mattered, ultimately?

how many of those shots would he make, 4?

until a few minutes ago, ...in Cleveland

Happiness!!!

Happy Birthday Bertrand! Are you planning on catching Wayne at UMD in late September? [...I know, obvious question.]

Happy BirthRay!!

Happy Birthday Bill--hope it is/was/will be a fun one!!

anyone found Ray Allen yet? Just wonderin'.

Fine Tyner performance last night, a real pleasure. McCoy isn't pounding the keys as hard as he used to but if anything he's more thoughtful and lyrical these days. His stamina seemed fine too and the band (Eric Gravatt in particular - astonishing) gelled nicely. Shame about the boominess of the acoustics in The Forum though (old art-deco theatre). Acoustics worthy of Dean Benedetti ! Glad to hear that McCoy delivered. Maybe that UK air agrees with him!

I saw the Moran piece in Washington DC (second performance after it debuted in North Carolina). Hoppy T Frog and I discussed it here: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...02&hl=Moran I've also seen Tyner a few times recently. He is getting really old. Don't be surprised if he lasts only 40 minutes. Go for Lovano, Gravatt etc.

Gotta join the crowd calling this test bogus. I grew up in Cleveland, got schooled in Chicago, and now live in Northern Virginia. None of these places is too Dixie (even NoVA). I hit most or all of the Great Lakes items on test, yet scored a 55% (barely Dixie).

Happy Birthday B3er! Hope it's a beautiful day with the beautiful family.

What did SS1 do to the plane!!!?

Buccholz last fall.

Happy Birthday Mr. Nessa!!

Sadly, the pens on both teams are showing some shortcomings so far. Boy that ballpark in Cincy is real small. Cliff Lee came back to earth a bit and the Tribe got swept. Ouch. Brandon Phillips still finding motivation by his stay in Cleveland. [Let's remember that trade one more time: Bartolo Colon rental and used fungo bats in exchange for Cliff Lee, Grady Sizemore, and Brandon Phillips. Wow.] Rumors about Indians trading for Matt Holliday?? Congrats to Lester. Couldn't happen to a guy with a better comeback story.
