One of my favorites. Amazing he continues to put out such great music which also includes his most recent release Without Deception. Happy Birthday, Kenny!

Kevin, any chance did you see one of the protests on the news over the weekend on one of the beaches down in New Hampshire? The organizer of the protest said that the governor had upsurped his authority and that things should be allowed to return to normal. He said not a new normal but the old normal. He gestured thumbs down to the new normal. Some of the protesters carried signs which said fake science. Can't make this stuff up.

My old office is still short staffed. That's after they hired a bunch of people a few months back. As been cited media mail has been terrible. I've had a package sitting in Springfield, Mass. for 10 days until a short time ago.

Ordered the John Patton Mosaic off eBay over 2 weeks ago from Sunnyvale, Ca.. Shipped Media mail . Using tracking the last sign of the package was 9 days ago sitting in Los Angeles.

He hates the Posral Service plain and simple. That's not a political statement but fact.

As a former employee I just don't get this stuff. Of course I posted my similar experience. From what I've read online overall first class and bulk(junk) mail volume is way down because of the virus. There are days when there is nothing in my mailbox. As for parcel volume I'm hearing it's comparable to the Christmas holidays because with many stores closed and people home, there is a lot or ordering online. Amazon can't even guarantee 2 day delivery for Prime members. Chewy where we order our pet food, is taking forever to ship. We placed an order over 10 days ago and still hasn't shipped. Perhaps the rank and file at the USPS is overwhelmed. Not that's an excuse. Just weird stuff that escapes me.

Just an update FWIW. The package arrived on Monday. Weird it took the travels it did. I feel kind of petty for mentioning it now since they're more obviously important things going on these days. Moving on.

Well the latest it is now in Oxford, Mississippi.

I guess sooner or later it had to happen to me. I have a shipment mailed from New York to here in Maine with scheduled delivery for today by 8pm and currently it's sitting in Memphis, Tenn.. So does that mean I'm not getting my package today? Smh

While I never knew Clint, I do remember his posts on various jazz forums. It was only a few months ago he friended me on Facebook when I began posting various jazz videos and audio segments. We interacted alittle. Sorry to hear of his passing.
