Damn, it didn't work! How do you blow those up? That's my favorite smilie.

I'm gonna try something... (see next post)

for good measure.

and a couple more

do it!!

more should

Just a few

Nope

Am I at 4000 yet?

I usually hit the sack at 12:30 or 1:00 and get up at 6:30 to 7:00. I get real sleepy on my long drives back from work. In general, I could use more sleep, but I've got too many hobbies!

I'll be upgrading them all.

The answer is elementary: Just tell Joe to go back to the other side of the stage with his cigar.

My dentist is into television. He's got FOX news on whenever I'm there. He's rightwing, and we get along just fine...

Grant Green's "Visions" would be great!

"Here to Stay" and "Basra" are both essential in my book. I didn't particularly care for "Davis Cup."

Prompted by my six year old son's disbelief that there was a song titled "Popsicle Toes" last week I played several tracks from The Art of Tea. That's probably his best cd, but I like many of the others as well.

Happy Birthday to a friend and to a member of a favorite band. All the best Jim!!]

I think that I will telephone him first to warn him when his parties extend out too late in the weekdays. The cops will be call afterwards if my call has no effect. I'll develop a backbone yet...

Unfortunately Dan, I have a noisy and selfish neighbor. He has every frickin loud mechanical device known to the American suburbanite; and he makes a living by adopting kids and pocketing the $20-30,000/year per kid income that comes along with it. He has his noisy friends and family over all the time to scream and splash in his pool; and they love to park their cars in front of my house, while nothing is parked in front of his house. His dog poops in my yard and he's always up to something guaranteed to annoy me. I just try to take it all as philosophically as possible. If I had more of Dan's guts, I would call the cops, but I just tend to take it... Once I parked my speakers to the window to blast out some jazz and he responded by pumping out rock n' roll while swimming in the pool. I just can't win... I am determined to telephone him next time he's got another noisy pool party going at 11:00 at night.

Good luck on that, Wheel...

Only Bud Powell is left. Anyone...

It's yours, Eric!
