Yeah, Chuck's got a bad rep which he no longer deserves. He chewed into some folks who deserved it. Heck, folks, he's tougher on existing members than on the newbies!

If you surf around a bit, you can see that the photo is credited Courtesy of National Archives & Records Administration. Here's another taken at the same event: The guy in the middle is James Baldwin.

I was 8 years old. It just seemed as if everyone was being assassinated. Then there was the daily gore of the Vietnam War. It was a shame that MLK didn't make it into old age. It would have been great to see what he might have accomplished. He was by far one of the greatest leaders over the last 50 years.

A little gay for my tastes. But I know what he means! Happy Birthday! Congrats to the growing Alfredson clan.

Happy Birthday, Allen! Now where am I and who was I talking to?

Jerry Jones collecting all the flotsam around the league? I wouldn't pay a penny for Pacman. Is Detroit really willing to part with Roy Jones for #28? Hmmm. Tell Jerry to offer his two first rounders for the Pats #7 pick in the draft. McFadden might still be around.

Hopefully traveling on it as opposed to lying unconscious on it. He better have a good excuse!

I'll take anything if you're buying.

Nevermind guys, this is almost surely a chessbase April Fool's joke. I'm laughing now over the details. Had me going for sure.

Doubt any of the cash has survived either.

Black limo from Whitehall?

Fascinating story about how they're looking at Bobby Fischer's harddrive and discovering all kinds of emails exchanged with prominent grandmasters over the last couple of decades. For those who follow grandmaster chess, you will find these emails flabbergasting. You mean that Nxf7 novelty in the Slav that Topalov sprung on Kramnik was Fischer's idea and not Ivan Cheparinov's? Hard to believe! Check this out. http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=4543

Only two hours from Toledo. Maybe we could hook up someday.

Got my Shirley Scott cds today. Thanks!

PM sent PM returned. $8 is fine.

$9 shipping included to US address. Listened to once or twice. This is the recently reissued cd on Verve. Will trade for any Riverside/OJC/Prestige 20-bit K-2 reissue that I don't have.

Good luck to you. What was I doing again?

This is what a teacher at the University was telling me about my young classmates. Intersting. Now where am I again?

Happy Birthday!

Things should liven up once Felser reads the additions.

I forgot what I was just doing. Where am I?

Even Jazzmoose? I've been lucky so far and still sport a perfect ebay feedback with 548 transactions. Still, I know I can get one at any time. The system isn't perfect by any means.

Boy was I wrong on the "still has a large jazz collection!" I hadn't stopped been there for 6-10 months, but much of the music had been cleared out. Could barely find anything to buy. Did pick up Sonny Stitt, "New York Jazz" on Verve.

I think Lowe and Weizy are bosom pals who vote Libertarian.
