  1. Count me in for a CD!
  2. Happy Birthday 2012 Ken! It's always a pleasure to read your posts.
  3. Correct, Cliff! Now it's your turn!
  4. Tim Burke has confirmed that Buck Pierce suffered a mild concussion when he was hit on the chin by a helmet. Nevertheless, he may play in the next game, which is Monday (Thanksgiving or Columbus Day). http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406604
  5. Happy Birthday 2012 Rod!
  6. David, I received an email today which said that you had added Hank's Pranks and 120 other tracks. So I clicked on the button, and it took me to your playlist where I saw that you had added Hank Mobley and Elvin Jones.
  7. Kavis Reed has made himself offensive coordinator, and demoted Marcus Crandell to quarterbacks coach. Edmonton is now in last place in the West, four points behind the Riders. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406472
  8. BeBop, apparently you are new to prayer (if this concept is new to you)!
  9. Freeelancer, I see that your link to Rex Hunt's issues goes back to 2006. You must have quite a memory to adequately google that! I'm surprised that Rex was only 57 in 2006. He sounded older than that to me.
  10. I've never heard much Branford. I was given his album Requiem when it was new, but never got around to opening it, I suppose because the reviews weren't great. I bought Wynton's Village Vanguard box (7 CDs for something like $35) ten years ago, and I've heard I think five of the disks. I'm pretty sure I could get a CD of good music from the five that I've heard.
  11. This one is now up on Spotify. It is soothing, and I find very pleasant to have on in the background. I think if I listened to it closely, I would feel that (to my taste) there is too much noodling during the middle tracks. Definitely worth your time to check out at Spotify.
  12. Great! Now will spotify notify me when you add to it? It occurs to me that maybe some of the early Mosaics might be on spotify, like the Monks and the Mulligan and the Bakers.
  13. Do I then click on Subscribe?
  14. Aren't some of those Horace Silvers new to CD?
  15. Toronto Argonauts 29....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 10 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4533007 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406406 The Argos scored a quick 21 points in the first quarter, and then lost the momentum. But the Bombers were unable to score more than 10 in the second quarter. Buck Pierce had to leave the game after a helmet hit to his chin. ***** Saskatchewan Roughriders 27....British Columbia Lions 21 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4533105 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406426 Another big surprise! The Riders dominated the game until the Lions made it exciting in the fourth. The Lions lost both Arland Bruce and Geroy Simon in the first half.
  16. David, it's not clear to me how do to it. Do you know what the "Spotify URI" is?
  17. I listed some here though it's not complete: http://open.spotify....0hYshc4mo5M8MRo Thanks David! That's terrific! How do I "bookmark" your list while I'm at spotify?
  18. These two album covers do not look to me like Columbia artwork. Do you think that they are both Cadence recordings? http://www.oldies.com/product-view/64982.html?utm_source=OLDIES.com+Emails&utm_campaign=2b72a2e1e9-send_153&utm_medium=email
  19. Freelancer, I remember one of the Sydney Grand Finals, I think it was the one won by six points, where a player has the ball late in the fourth quarter, and Rex pauses and takes a deep breath and shouts, "Run, ya bahstud!" We don't have that in the United States!
  20. Darn. I typed up my summary, and then hit the wrong button. Here we go again. It was a great fourth quarter with the lead changing hands. But in the end, Hawthorn kicked behinds when they needed a goal for the lead. Final score - Sydney 14.7.91....Hawthorn 11.15.81. The Sydney Swans are the world champions! Congratulations Sydney and Freelancer! Attendance was over 99,600.
  21. RIP. I remember reading his interview with Cadence. It was very enjoyable.
  22. Hamilton Tiger-Cats 41....Montreal Alouettes 28 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4532752 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406335 Surprise! The Ticats dominated the entire game. I guess that's why they play the games. Luca Congi has now kicked 21 consecutive field goals ***** Calgary Stampeders 39....Edmonton Eskimos 15 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4532808 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=406341 Only moderately interesting. Matt Nichols made a number of rookie mistakes as you might expect. Jon Cornish became the eighth Canadian to rush for 1,000 yards in league history.
  23. Wow! At three-quarter time, it's Sydney 10.5.65....Hawthorn 9.10.64. Sydney continued its scoring streak with the first two goals of the half. But Hawthorn then responded with five straight goals. They scored the last three in the time it took me to warm my left over pizza. Sydney then scored a goal to stop Hawthorn's streak.
  24. The second quarter was a complete disaster for Hawthorn. Sydney scored six goals, and Hawthorn scored only one behind. At halftime, the score is Sydney 7.4.46....Hawthorn 4.6.30. The announcer has just referred to 3AW, so I guess I am getting a network feed of theirs. Apparently their announcer I liked, whose name was Rex, has retired. Maybe Freelancer knows.
  25. After one quarter, the score is Hawthorn 4.5.29....Sydney 1.4.10. At 25 past the hour I tuned in; and Freelancer, your link asked me for $29, so that was out. The 3AW site wasn't working. That's happened in previous years, I assume due to too much demand. It took me some time, but I found the Sydney broadcasters here: http://tunein.com/radio/2UE-954-s16558/
