  1. I did the same!
  2. You guys should try this. ORANGE SALAD, directly from Sicily: Take an orange, peel it, cut it in slices, add black olives, olive oil, a pinch of salt and, if you like it, fennel seeds.
  3. Actually, I have a TIME MACHINE that will bring you right to RVG studio and ABBEY ROAD at the exact time those faboulos vinyls were recorded. At this moment I can guarantee only one way trip, but the ticket prices are definitely lower than an original Mobley's BN. FORGET HOT STAMPERS, TIME MACHINE IS THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE IN AUDIOPHILE PARANOIA!!!
  4. I haven't the cd box, but in the lp box all notes are there.
  5. Just found a couple of records in my usual store: F. HUBBARD "Backlash" and J. HENDERSON "Relaxin' At Camarillo"
  6. I think I will delete the others!
  7. Typical. If they ain't nappin', they be drunk and kissing people. B-) But always dressed with style!
  8. Only if she is an adulteress.
  9. Yes, but with this in your garage, where do you park the AMC Pacer? In the kitchen!
  10. I haven't all the records you listed, but I have all the original Doors lps and this instrument in my garage, may I keep posting?
  11. In case you wish to visit Dubai Dubai fines drunken Italian for taxi kiss. DUBAI (AFP) - A tipsy Italian visitor to the relatively liberal Gulf emirate of Dubai has reportedly been fined nearly 3,300 dollars for hugging and kissing a woman in public. According to the Gulf News daily, a court in the Muslim emirate heard a policeman say he saw the couple hugging and kissing in a taxi near the international airport, Gulf News said. He took the unidentified man and his Egyptian acquaintance to a police station for questioning. The two "confessed to hugging and kissing inside the taxi," and the Italian also admitted to being drunk. He was fined 12,000 dirhams (3,270 dollars) after being "charged with drinking alcohol and lewd behavior in public" and his companion had to pay 545 dollars for "lewd behavior in public," the newspaper said. Dubai, a member of the United Arab Emirates federation, currently boasts five million visitors a year -- many of them Westerners -- for its population of 1.2 million. It is targeting 10 million by 2007 and 40 million by 2015. The affluent emirate is in the midst of a drive to establish itself as the Gulf's business and leisure hub.
  12. I am sure you will be deriding Susan Sontag any moment now as a screwed up person, and that you hope that her ignorance was not passed on to her children. You could accuse Sontag of everything, but ignorance. Interesting -- when I read the Susan Sontag thread yesterday, I was thinking of contrasting it with this Reggie White thread -- because right there in the Times obit, and specifically quoted by Deus62, was this string of adjectives: "She was described, variously, as explosive, anticlimactic, original, trendy, iconoclastic, captivating, hollow, rhapsodic, naïve, sophisticated, approachable, abrasive, aloof, attention-seeking, charming, condescending, populist, puritanical, sybaritic, sincere, posturing, ascetic, voluptuary, right-wing, left-wing, mannered, formidable, brilliant, profound, superficial, ardent, bloodless, dogmatic, challenging, ambivalent, accessible, lofty, erudite, lucid, inscrutable, solipsistic, intellectual, visceral, reasoned, pretentious, portentous, maddening, lyrical, abstract, narrative, acerbic, opportunistic, chilly, effusive, careerist, sober, gimmicky, relevant, passé, facile, illogical, ambivalent, polemical, didactic, tenacious, slippery, celebratory, banal, untenable, doctrinaire, ecstatic, melancholic, humorous, humorless, deadpan, rhapsodic, aloof, glib, cantankerous and clever. No one ever called her dull." None of us who marked her passing thought it was cruel to say any of those things -- it was just honest -- Susan Sontag, of course, lived long enough to revisit and revise things she'd said earlier...
  13. Allman Brothers Band "Eat A Peach" Capricorn; Well, lately I am in a rock mood...
  14. Don't take it personally, I am sure your grandpa was a great person, but the meaning of the word "progress" involves that you elaborate something better than what you learned. I don't think as Chris does that RW "failed the more important test as a decent human being", (I am dubious about human being). I never heard of RW before this thread, but he was a public person, his acts and his speeches were public, I think everybody has the right to criticize them. I don't think that every dead man is equal. Talking again about Hitler, have you the same respect for the dead man "Hitler" and for the dead man "Ghandi"? In a religious perspective you could pray for their souls, but in a historic perspective death doesn't absolve all sins.
  15. Benny Golson "Groovin' With Golson" New Jazz and John Lennon "Imagine" MFSL
  16. Maybe you remember W. Allen in Manhattan Murder Mystery: "I can't listen to that much Wagner, ya know? I start to get the urge to conquer Poland"
  17. On the website of the italian branch of Doctors Without Borders you can do on-line donations with Credit Card, I just did it.
  18. My condolences to Elizabeth

  20. Usually, the next step of these factious self-called historians is to justifing Hitler as a reactions against communism, a further step is denying Holocaust in some way. Quoting the early Marx and Engels out of the contest without a historic perspective is everything, but history. I am sure one could depict you as a dangerous terrorist, like Tim McVeigh, simply quoting your posts in the forum in such way and adding the right dose of intellectual dishonesty showed by the guy you quoted
  21. Well, that is an example. They all gouge on the OOP stuff nowadays. Acoustic Sounds has been doing it for years. Look at some of their OOP 45rpm Classic Records prices. Anyway, RT is okay by me, OOP Mosaics aside. In my experience Mosaics are always overpriced in on-line shops, Ebay is far better in this case. If you want to have an idea about Mosaic prices, and jazz Lp in general, on Ebay you can check out POPSIKE. http://www.popsike.com/index.html
  22. Nah, I think this guy is our man...
  23. I think Bruce Willis will be too old for the job then...
  24. Cave's rents will rise...
