I've always liked this one more than the usual from this period:

Bollywood is amongst the wackiest stuff I've ever heard through these "Western" ears. The thought of somebody being able to even think music like that takes up when/if the musical interest wanes. Not too many musics have that effect on me, at least not to the extent that this stuff does.

I'd like to announce that I am not pregnant. Sure my gut looks like I am, but my breasts in no way follow suit.

I hear you on all that, Chuck, but I also feel that there's enough "negative examples" to found pretty much every damn where you look. so if Jim occasionally chooses to be selective about which ones he hosts here, it ain't a deal-breaker, if you know what I mean. Either way, this is the first thread I went toi after I got home, so now I gotta look for the nasty Cliff Englewood thread now current. Sounds like a real party on the patio...

Then you really shouldn't post anything in the thread, unless it's recommendations for Stan Getz recordings. If you're not willing to say anything on why you think it's sad for the board the thread is gone, why post that you think it's sad for the board that the thread is gone in the first place??? If the person who started the thread has no problem with it being deleted and the owner of the forum saw it as correct to delete it, then the matter is closed. Now back to discussing the many recordings of Stan Getz that some of us have or may wish to get. One reason I didn't say more. . . .Maybe I was being polite and didn't want to say something bad about you. You were rubbing your hands with glee that you felt Allen was chided by Bev. I didn't like your attitude. I haven't liked the way you provoke Allen. ? Other reasons: I felt that it was a bad precedent for the board and that it may be a deterrent to real discussion. I think I agree with oneofanotherkind and I think Chuck. There was much to learn on that thread. I am sad Bev felt the way she did, and she had the right to say why she did, and there was a lesson to learn in there that is now gone, not to be learned by new others. And there was the sort of discussion there that can't be found elsewhere, and it's sad that that type of discussion, open and gloves off, may be limited by the thread's deletion. I did not see (I don't think) the complete thread, the final posts. fwiw - that particular thread being deleted did not really bother me - as a "special case". Things were drifitng out of control and off-subject pretty quickly last time I looked in. And I did not get to see the final posts either, so who knows... I trust that it will not set a precedent whereby anybody who objects to an honest discussion of a historical figure's life & time becomes grounds for thread deletion. But in this case, I believe that whoever deleted the thread was acting in good faith at the time. The loss of serious discussion was unfortunate, but hey, life ain't perfect and neither are we. There's ample proof of that everywhere you look... Perhaps the best course of action going forth would be a closing statment by a moderator explaining why a thread is being closed (not deleted) and a subsequent editing out of any too-far-gone posts coupled with the closing of the thread. That ain't perfect either, but if you can find a better deal, take it.

And do you get the feeling that Bennett was kinda yielding his seat with some bit of reluctance? Now, if Mr. Bennett's son is reading this, let me stipulate that I might be wrong about this & make no judgments even if I'm not. Just want that on the record, ok?

Exactly, oh Talmudic-Scholar-In-Waiting. It's one thing to "tell the truth", quite another altogether to tell an immediate family member whose feelings were bruised by said truth that they had no right to neither feel nor express the bruise.

Seems like an act of common courtesy and respect for one of the "family". A fine line to walk, indeed, but in this case, walked properly, in my opinion.

Are you serious? Not about Lakers v Cavs, but about hearing it here first?

Am I the only one who thinks that the Celtics went into the series with the heat moratlly wounded by the Bulls? It's like they were already bleeding to death, it just took 'em a while to get there.

you'll be back, right?

I did see Mudcat Grant perform before a Cardinals game somehwere in the early 1970s w/an organ group. But he was just singing, I think. But hey...
