hey Chuck, happy birthday

Sorry if it offends, but I'm glad it's gone. I wish they would take it off syndication too; I completely hate that show, especially that curly-haired weiner who makes all the faces. I can't even stand it when I happen to land on when I'm changing channels.

yes, she is, but she's also wicked skinny.

Wow, I've lost count. How many times has Chris left with a big burst of drama? This is at least the third, maybe fourth?

what does YMMV mean? you crazy kids and your internets lingo....

why do they start the season so early? I love baseball, but the season is just too long. It shouldn't start until late April or even May. It's snowing here today, also in Chicago, I think Cincinnati is also getting snow.....just dump the foolish interleague games and cut the season down a bit and it would be almost perfect!

Aw man, don't be. I mean, I dig and respect Brian, but hell, sometimes you just gotta call him on his bullshit, just so he knows that you know, if you know what I mean That's his name?

I reiterate.... Manga is an extremely popular form of Japanese comics that took off in Japan just after WWII and caught on in America around the early 80's. ® huh. Guess I missed that trend, as I've never heard of it or noticed it's popularity. But if that is what Borders is turning to instead of CDs, then I'm getting off the bus now.

Dewey Redman- The Struggle Continues Art Ensemble of Chicago- Tribute to Lester

I reiterate....

what the hell is manga?

never mind that; why don't you have an iPhone??

Don't forget, Organissimo has played there too. I wish I could have gone.

never used it. Didn't even know it was there.

Wow, this is unexpected. Is that near the DIA?

Glass hoisted.

happened to me 3 times, the last two within 10 days of each other and on different cards. i never could figure out how they got these card numbers since I barely used one and the other i used on reputable web sites. the rep at the card company said maybe when i handed it over for a bill at a restaurant, perhaps, but it was never out of my sight.

how many shows do either Roscoe or Muhal do in a year, including other collaborations?

Damn.

Borders laid off 136 workers at the Ann Arbor Corporate Headquarters this week, 2 weeks after cutting a few of the executives, and about 8 months after cutting 156 workers at HQ. And, most Borders stores will go to Top 25 for music selection (it seems like it is now, actually).

I'm pretty sure I saw this on a DMG newsletter as a new release sometime last spring.

sure, he may be a douche (who cares?), but I find myself listening to Always Let Me Go and Personal Mountains a lot, at least monthly over the past year or so. I'm unable to analyze the music like Jim and others here, but, I like it.

Do you see much discussion of his music in this thread after the initial post? Was the article supposed to spark discussion? Or was it more likely to confirm that dastardly opinion "he's a pretentious twat"? I didn't see a post that's supposed to spark a musical discussion, and if you want to read nothing but positive views of Jarrett, perhaps keithjarrett.com has a discussion board. But if you think the moderators on AAJ, Harlem.org or the Hoffman forums are tough, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Oh, alright then. Do you see much discussion of his music in ANY thread about him?

Do you see much discussion of his music in this thread after the initial post?

Me too. Why even bother bringing it up anymore- yeah, I get it, the vocalizations are annoying to people who let it bother them. I read it in every thread about him, as every one of them always get pushed down that road by the usual suspects.
