  1. marcello, I see that on your birthday in 1956 Don Larsen pitched his perfect game!
  2. Winnipeg Blue Bombers 32....Hamilton Tiger-Cats 17 http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4441745 The score makes the game look much closer than it was. With the win, the Bombers clinch their first playoff spot since 2008.
  3. I've been listening to him on spotify.
  4. Happy Birthday 2011 Tom!
  5. Umar Ali Week 15 preview http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4441680
  6. This link should take you to a coupon for a free Wendy's new hamburger. http://bricks.coupons.com/Start.asp?tqnm=yjfvfol57571887&bt=wg&o=91504&pt=&lang=&ws=&ct=&ci=&cl=&cp=&eb=1&c=WY&p=ojjbjjzntpvyuvg&z=&r=&pc=&tc=
  7. There will be a double header on Monday, Canadian Thanksgiving Day. ***** Globe week 15 picks http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/football/week-15/article2193731/
  8. I'm enjoying the Donald Harrison - This is Jazz. It's different from other power trios I have heard because Harrison is not as much of a power horn player. It's a Ron Carter album almost as much as a Harrison album. Billy Cobham pretty much stays in the background. At times it reminds me of a trio from the early 70s called Back Door which you may recall. By the way, this was recorded just last March.
  9. Just as many people have the urge to buy a record album immediately following the death of a singer, I wonder if people will have the urge to buy an Apple product immediately upon the death of Steve Jobs.
  10. Is that Sigourney Weaver?
  11. Happy Birthday 2011 Duke!
  12. I had a feeling this one might be impossible. Think '80s TV. Hint: She played a role made famous by... Well, since even Valerie can't guess (and since apparently Jim isn't cheating this time! ), I'll reveal our mystery guest. Her name is Caryn Richman, and her most famous role was as the star of The New Gidget in the 80s. At the time, I thought that she and Stephanie Zimbalist were the two most beautiful women in the world. I have since seen her in a car commercial (Honda?) and in a supermarket video telling shoppers what aisle they can find things on. I'll let you compare who has fared better in the past twenty-five years. The top photo is a picture of her today. Here's what Stephanie Zimbalist looks like today. I think they both still look great. Yikes! How do I make the picture smaller? PS - It also occurs to me that I saw Caryn Richman in Atlanta ca. 1990 in the touring company of Grease.
  13. When I saw Sonny in Atlanta twenty years ago, he was introduced as "the most influential living jazz saxophonist in the world". But it's not clear to me how influential Sonny has been. Perhaps I mistakenly give the credit due Sonny to Coleman Hawkins instead. Can anyone name some tenors who would have sounded differently if Sonny had never been born?
  14. Valerie, I thought for sure you would get post #807. If you don't, I'll just turn over all the cards and reveal who the mystery guest is.
  15. Is that Anthony Quinn?

  17. The price has come down to $10.16. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005D1IFNA/ref=pe_53950_21355170_pe_vfe_dt3
  18. Happy Birthday 2011 Marcus!
  19. Happy Birthday 2011 Brad!
  20. Chuck, considering that these are digital, not physical, do you feel that Universal could release them for a lot less and still make a good profit?
  21. RIP. I remember the name. I had a couple of Kevin Ayers imports. Maybe there's something on spotify that I can find.
  22. Those prices seem high to me, though I haven't done the math. What does $37.50 work out to be per song?
  23. 10-4, Chuck!
  24. Hint: Today is 10/4.
