Tom 1960

My wife has mentioned upgrading more than a few times since the Yorkie and the Brittany/Golden share the bed with us. My usual response is if we do get the larger mattress, the third dog(Soft Coated Wheaton Terrier) would eventually wind up in the bed with us also.

Sounds like my Yorkshire Terrier. Good thing I have a spare bed.

Recorded in 1982 it features the duo of Russ Freeman and Shelly Manne. Any thoughts on this release since I'm a big fan of both?

Hadn't heard of him before, Tom, but am playing his Youtube clips now. "School of Eric Alexander", I'd say. loads of grant stewart can also be heard in the smallsjazzclub archive... Thanks Niko. Right now listening to on lala.com: Jeremy Pelt - November

Lala: Grant Stewart - In The Still Of The Night

Yeah wonderful. Who wants to listen to music anyways?

Just started snowing a short time ago. Glad I'm off from work tomorrow. Damn, it's coming down hard!

Hans, you have struck gold. I accidentally hit that button recently and didn't give it a second thought till now. Problem solved. Thanks again.

I'm running off Windows VISTA and Internet Explorer 8 if that makes any difference? I only seem to run across these problems here.

I seem to have problems editing my posts. When I click on the edit button, it completely erases what I originally posted. For example, I wanted to edit a recent listening post. When I hit edit, everthing disppears, so fine. I'll do it over. I click on the image icon, paste in the image, hit insert image box and nothing appears on the screen. Afterwards, I noticed that my cursor, the line that blinks on and off appears at the top of the box in the blue shaded area.Not sure what's going on there? Also, in this box I'm replying in right now only allows me to post 6 lines and then it drops into the blue shaded area. What gives here? Any help you guys can provide would be appreciated. I'm running off Windows if that helps?

I woke this morning to see it was 6 degrees F here. We usually turn the heat down in the house to 60 at night to conserve on energy. Somehow it felt much colder than that.

Happy birthday, 7/4.

Live At The Falcon This unique club has been up and running for some time now with little fanfare till recently. It's located about 60 or so miles north of NY City in Marlboro, New York. About 30 minutes south from where I live. The owner has been courting jazz musicians and other music genres to perform at his club. From what I understand, there is no set ticket price for the shows although people are sort of expected to leave money in a hat. At least that's what my friend tells me. The upcoming schedule looks to be interesting with the Fred Hersch date sounding the most intriguing. Although, I have to admit knowing little of Hersch. Any thoughts?

So did I. Amazon didn't have any music samples, which is usually my modus operandi, but for 11 bucks it's hard to go wrong. You wont be sorry, fellas.

Hope you're not out delivering today, Tom. Not to worry, Paul. I have a rotating schedule at the P.O. and this just happened to be my weekend off. I lucked out big time.

Great set/great price. Get this before it's too late!

14 degrees F right now although the weatherman promises it will be colder tonight.
