My vague recollection of 1973 purchases includes... Larry Coryell - The Real Great Escape Soft Machine Six and Seven Colin Blunstone - Ennismore (sp?) Back Door

I haven't gotten to this one yet, but Marc Myers reviewed yesterday in his JazzWax blog. http://www.jazzwax.com/

Jeff, I'm sorry you lost your friend. He sounds like quite a guy!

Happy Birthday 2013 Al!

Thanks, Jim!

The Eskimos have traded Brody McKnight to the Riders for draft picks. I haven't forgotten how Paul Osbaldiston was very well travelled before he caught on with the Ticats, so maybe McKnight will catch on somewhere too. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=417104

Guy, I'm sorry to learn of your loss of your good friend.

The Eskimos have released Mathieu Bertrand. I had no idea that he was 35 already. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=417129 ***** Scott Milanovich was named Coach of the Year yesterday. I believe that in the past only the regular season was considered;l but I have to believe that the playoffs were considered this year, because I don't think that the Argos had a good year until they got hot, hot, hot at the end. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=417037

Jim, I'm following up on your question, and hope to have an answer soon.

Bon voyage!

Where are you going, Lon?

That's something, Paul! I'm sure that I have never in my life remembered a dream in such detail.

The league has plans for online pay per view this year. http://www.sportspromagazine.com/news/afl_looks_to_new_audience_with_rightster/

For the past couple of weeks, the board/server has rejected press releases that I have tried to post because they included jpeg images of the album covers and the artists. When I remove the jpegs, the board accepts the post. Was this a deliberate decision on someone's part? I think that the posts look a lot better with the album cover art.

The Hall of Fame has announced that there will be six new inductees this year: Earl Winfield Miles Gorrell Dan Ferrone Jake Ireland Bryan Fryar (whom I saw play in the '78 Grey Cup) for his college career SFX coach Don Loney http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4569096 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=416530

I saw Petula in Las Vegas in August of '73. The warm-up act was Joan Rivers. It was a great evening!
