My favorite tenor saxophone taxonomy: DAVE PELL Nino Tempo arthur rollini ziggy vines You have to guess who this is. That is not a flow chart. Pleae provide a flow chart. Need Visio? So do I!

Actually, it's Heath Barkley!

How about this one?

Does the image not show itself?

Guess who?

Yeah, more flow charts, please!

What I hear is that Grossman had Bird down by the time he was 14 or 15 and then moved on to Trane.

Don't all major fast food chains carry salads these days?

This years' Rangers have been uber-notorious for getting discombobulated by call-ups and other newbies they've never seen before, so there is that. But the Rays have also played us tough all year, so it just may be one of those times like against the Giants last year where we had the "better team" but ran into a team that was playing better baseball at the time, so...that's why they play the games, eh? Either way, if the Rangers play tough the rest of the way and still lose, fine. But if it's going to be two more games of mental-lapse pitching and impotent bat swinging, that will be...disappointing.

Oh Mickey...

Produced by George Duke fwiw... Their version of the hoary standard "Chloe" is a real trip in terms of glottal timbral variations. The internet is your friend...

Budd Johnson? That sound. Not just a tone, but a sound!

Either Mickey or Art, I forget which, and I'm not sure but that his obsession with obfuscating the truth is not the reason for that.

I liked how he never let who his brother was, although, really, would you?

Far less appetizing options on the table!

gracias beaucoup! it's been a quietly wild ride, actually, this Rangers's season has been. But here we are!

Think of how the copyists felt!

Agreed on the taxpayer subsidy of stadiums, that's just extorion, plain and simple. But as far as athelete's (or anybody's) salaries, hey - if the money's there, and you have the leverage to maximize your earnings in terms of what the market will bear,, hey - carpe diem like a big dog. I never have a problem with anybody getting as much of a return on their labors as they can, be it a streetsweeper or a wide reciever. That money's going to end up in somebody's pocket, dig? I may well be in the minority here, but my primary satisfaction in watching sport is exactly the "at work" part of it. For most spectators, there is the gladiator/spectacle/warrior/whatever aspect, but that's as much marketing/mass-hipnosis as it is anything else. Once the action begins, it's very much about people going to work and doing their job. And when you get down to it, jobs is jobs - you got something you need to get done, and you got things in your way that can keep you from getting it done, so...whatcha's gonna do? For office workers, it could be dealing with managers who have not a clue, technology that does everyting wrong, and mandated expectations that can never be met. For musicians' it could be some pattern that your fingers and mind just don't want to hook up on, or a clubowner who insists that you start early, play late, and take fewer breaks, or some drummer sitting in who doesn't have a clue. For an athlete, it could be a pticher whose stuff is so nasty that you cna't get a grip on what to look for, or an offensive guarf who seems to have figured out how to make your move the step before you make it, or legs that can't quite seem to get that little summpin=-summpin extra to make that last second push at the tape, it could be anything, becuase life is ultimately just as much, if not more, about confronting challenges and trying to fgure out a way to get either through or arond them as it is revelling in "the good times", whatever that means. We all need to make that money, dig? And if Kobe works in an area of business where that much money is available for his labor, and if he has the leverage to get it, by golly GET IT. The rest of us - take lessons and apply the whenever possible at whatever level is possible. It can - and should - be done.

I'm confused....at what point are we supposed to resent Labor for getting as much from Management as the market will bear?

Got to stay up late to see my guys clinch and celebrate, don't have to take to the road tomorrow morning all nervous or fidgety or anything like that. In Wash We Trust WONDERFUL world!!!!

Yankees vs Rangers is a total crapshoot at this point, at least on paper. Patient Rangers hitters should yield success against Yankee pitching, but there's no guarantee that there will be patient Rangers hitters. None at all. Also, with Yankee Stadium home field advantage, Rangers pitchers must be flawless, which is just not going to happen, except maybe with CJ. On paper, a tossup, but based on real-life tendencies, advantage Yankees. Although to be honest, I'd rather take my chances against the Yankees than the Tigers, especially without home field advantage. The Tigers played us tough all season, and playing them in their house always resulted in,,,weird stuff happening. Just flat out weird. Almost every damn time. This year's Rangers is a lot different team than last year's Rangers, and as I've said many times before, lots of mental hurdles to be cleared this year (and they mostly have been), so just taking the division is triumph enough for me. Not having Cliff Lee has led to the forced (and mostly successful) development of three starters, all of whom have exceeded expectations but as to whether or not they're mature enough to go deep in the playoffs (probably not an issue for Ogando, who I think will be saved for any long relief that might be needed), I don't know. If they are, great. If not, they better be next year!
