Hi all. The following titles are all available at $4 each, including postage. All are discs that are either duplicated on boxes (the Armstrongs, Monk, O'Day and Ornette) or are older issues I now have RVGs of (the Dolphy and the Mobley). Odds are, most of you already have these, but I figured I'd offer them just in case. Louis Armstrong: The Hot Fives vol. 1 (BMG edition) Louis Armstrong: The Hot Fives & Hot Sevens vol. 2 Louis Armstrong: The Hot Fives & Hot Sevens vol. 3 Ornette Coleman: The Shape of Jazz to Come (BMG edition) XXXEric Dolphy: Out to Lunch (BMG edition) Hank Mobley: Soul Station Thelonious Monk featuring John Coltrane: Live at the Five Spot Discovery! (BMG) Anita O'Day Swings Cole Porter with Billy May (BMG edition) If no one here wants them, any suggestions? I remember reading somewhere that libraries can't accept music club editions; is that true? I figure the others I can give to the local library, if I can be sure they'd be of use. I don't know... XXX=gone...

Well, I stand by everything I've said on this thread, and I refuse to edit anything.

By the way, Morganized, I hope you realize that my applause for Dr. J post was in reaction to his comments as he intended, not as you took them. But if not, sorry 'bout that; I didn't mean it as a "yeah, you dirty Morganized!" comment I swear!

I prefer to pick up everything, but it ain't gonna happen. Add to that the fact that I keep wasting my lottery budget on CDs...

Blarffshwigle sneirwg, yel carrhrohg? Whaaa?

Wow..I'm stunned, Jazz! Speaking as a former squid (if you don't know, you'll find out!), this is for you... A Marine and a Navy Seaman are standing at a couple of urinals in the head doing their thing. The Seaman finishes, buttons up his pants, and heads for the door. "Hey sailor", yells the Marine, "don't they teach you to wash your hands after you piss in the Navy?" "No", responds the Seaman. "They teach us not to piss on our hands..." Good luck! By the way, there'll be one day, fairly early in boot camp, that sucks to no end. You'll know it when you see it, believe me. Don't sweat it; it's the worst day of your entire military career, no matter how long it lasts! After that day, you'll have it whipped.

Handy for the taxman. Whoa...Chuck's back in midseason form!

I'm thinking next time we'll go with predominate cover color. Sort of a rainbow thing...

I take it you don't like the Eagles? As long as he doesn't come back out here...

Oops...gotta go, guys...

Okay, I guess it works still, but differently in an odd way. I think it still falls into the category of fixing what ain't broke...

Shit. It ain't your computer...

Nothing personal, Brad, but I sure hope your computer is screwed up!

It's the "delayed" part that gets to me. I get a hankerin' for some new tunes, so I check out a few threads here, scan the lists at Jazzmatazz, etc., and order a few CDs. Okay, great...but they ain't here yet! The monkey has not been fed, so a day or two later I find myself doing the same thing. Then after a few more days, they start coming in and of course by that time, I'm in the mood for swing rather than free...you can't win!

As Dave Barry says, I did not make this up... Associated Press ALISO VIEJO, Calif. - City officials were so concerned about the potentially dangerous properties of dihydrogen monoxide that they considered banning foam cups after they learned the chemical was used in their production. Then they learned that dihydrogen monoxide - H2O for short - is the scientific term for water. "It's embarrassing," said City Manager David J. Norman. "We had a paralegal who did bad research." The paralegal apparently fell victim to one of the many official looking Web sites that have been put up by pranksters to describe dihydrogen monoxide as "an odorless, tasteless chemical" that can be deadly if accidentally inhaled. As a result, the City Council of this Orange County suburb had been scheduled to vote next week on a proposed law that would have banned the use of foam containers at city-sponsored events. Among the reasons given for the ban were that they were made with a substance that could "threaten human health and safety." The measure has been pulled from the agenda, although Norman said the city may still eventually ban foam cups. "Our main concern is with the Aliso Creek watershed," Norman said. "If you get Styrofoam into the water and it breaks apart, it's virtually impossible to clean up."

So what are you doing, just boosting your post count? Hang on; let me edit this a couple of times...

Oh my, yes. I can enjoy a bag of garlic pistachio nuts for days...

I assumed as much, but you can't be too careful these days...

Come on, Bill; I'm sure he deserved it!

Whew! Now the thread seems right!

You mean after the shakes and before the hallucinations set in?

Holy shit! I hope I can cut back before I get to that point!

Anyone care to join me in a moment of prayer? (PLEASE don't let that box arrive on Saturday when the wife is home...please please please... )

Might also help if the "seven day" was a little flexible, what with payday being Friday and all. At least on the Shank set...
