I'll take Calgary and 45 points.

Well, jrbassman712, if you're not a spammer, stick around and learn a lot about all kinds of music- I've learned a lot from the great folks here.

I was quite surprised at how much I enjoyed the solo cuts. Normally that doesn't float my boat, but Braxton is quite engaging and sometimes even a bit witty.

Our spammer didn't mention that Tal Wilkenfeld is the bass player on this disc- she's about 20 years old and fantastic! The new disc is about $25 at Abstract Logix and about $12 at CD Universe.

Saturday was cooking frenzy day, as I made a pot of tomato sauce, chicken cutlet parmigiana, spaghetti, steak pizziola(sp) and sauteed okra, all in 90 minutes. Yesterday was chicken with potatoes and carrots, an heirloom tomato salad and a cheeseburger for my son. Tonight is chicken with broccolli, peppers, celery and snow peas in the wok with some brown rice.

In the photo there's a sign behind your head for a "Psychic Reader', and your head obscures the 'A' in 'ATM', so it looks like 'Psychic Reader' and them under it 'TM' as in Transcendental Meditation.

Of course I was referring to the jazz club, not the ladyfriend. LOL - I didn't get to go into the VV (again, the club, not the ladyfriend). Just stopped by to soak it up during the afternoon. For some reason Lorraine wouldn't come up and unlock the door for me. The pizza place came highly recommended from a native Brooklyn-ite, who is Italian. We completely trusted her judgment, and it was the best I've had in years, maybe since the last time I visited Italy in fact! Great choice with L&B-their pizza is excellent! Next time you may want to try DiFara's- long wait, no atmosphere, but great pizza.

I like Slap Yo Mama: http://www.cajunwholesale.com/catalog/inde...CFQOeFQodwkwQrw I make my own also.

Hello all. A couple weeks ago I saw Sylvie Courvoisier for the first time and I was highly impressed. Can anyone recommend a disc or two of hers that very good? Thanks for all replies.

AMEN BROTHER!!!! The Raiders will not get better until Al Davis is out of the picture- the game has passed him by.

If the Cowboys keep stumbling then the picks they traded to Detroit(I think its a 1st & 3rd) become a lot more valuable.

That was one fun game to watch- loads of drama, comebacks, great plays, etc. Sure beats those 42-6 blowouts that seem to dominate the tube these days.

HB Chris, May your muzz always be fresh, may your prosciutto(sp) be Parma, may your cannolis always be filled to the middle!!!

Definitely agree. I'm actually glad that the Eagles didn't do this trade even though they need WR help badly. Williams' numbers for the past 2 years have gone way done and his complaining has gone way up. Looks like the Lions are -finally- doing something right. Let's see Millen? Gone. Kitna? Gone. Williams? Gone. Plus they get a 1st, 3rd, and 6th in 2009. Good moves If the Cowboys have a bad year those are some very good picks! And no Matt Millen to botch them.

I think the Bosox win tonight.

I watched a rerun Friday night and it had some FUNNY bits, like the gangster rapper doing a PSA for 'No Child Left Behind' and then performing it for some young kids!!!

Humble Pie around 1972, with Peter Frampton in the group. Stacks of Marshall amps in what was once a movie theater(Capitol theater in Passaic, NJ) and I could feel my internal organs vibrating and seeming to shift around from the volume- only time I got an upset stomach from a concert. Opening act was J. Geils Band and they blew away Humble Pie(two encores for J. Geils!!), so once humble Pie came on with the painful volume the place started to empty.

You would have thought fans would have hung in until the bitter end. Glad I saw it. However, I do fess up to missing the 88 Kirk Gibson HR against the As. I woke up right after I hit it. I was off and thus able to stay up to see the end of the game, but for a lot of people with jobs they just can't stay up that late and be halfway alert at work the next day. I only see the ends of games on the weekend or if I have the next day off. These post-midnight endings are rough for people on the East Coast.

With Romo hurt, Williams probably won't be much of a factor until mid-November. Toss in a suspension for Pacman, TO likely to start whining and moaning about getting the ball, and the Cowboys could be facing some serious trouble. I'm a Giants fan, so it's not like I'm feeling too great after last night's no-show. With a great chance to get a good lead in the division, the Giants laid an egg.

How could that be?!?!? He's the best poker player in the world! No one else can touch him! Just ask him; he'll tell you.... I love to see Hellmuth lose!

Hello Alec, The box arrived today. I haven't opened it yet but I'm sure it's OK. Many many thanks!!

I've seen her live in two different settings- one with a string quartet with Hank Roberts, Bill Frisell & Jason Hwang(sp), and with Todd Sickafoose's group- she was excellent in both.

I recently got 'Leaf Palm Hand', a duet with Tony Oxley. Listened to it today for the first time and it's excellent!! very much like the performance I caught earlier this year at the Village Vanguard. Highly recommended.

How about a duo of Wynton Marsalis on electric trumpet with wah-wah pedal and Marcus Roberts on electric piano and synthesizers?!
