Pete C

Now that I can see the video at the link I posted, it isn't the Ed Sullivan appearance.

He was so relaxed he forgot the name of some of his tunes! Actually, I'm guessing the producer renamed them. What's with the Franglish "Portrait of an Ermite"? Does anybody know if the original French label said that or "Portrait d'un Ermite"? And speaking of portraits of ermites: http://info.francetelevisions.fr/video-info/index-fr.php?id-video=000331624_CAPP_Entrevaux04Portraitdunermite_251020111247_F3

Maybe they should just close the school and give the town a more dignified name.

He needs to be dealt with in The Hague. Perhaps, but that approach is very similar to Goodspeak's erstwhile defense of Paterno.

I remember the train wreck jazz supergroup that appeared on Sullivan after the Rahsaan protests: Mingus, Haynes, Kirk and Shepp doing Haitian Fight Song. I think everybody had time for maybe half a chorus of solo. I can't get videos at work, but it may be on this page: http://www.jazzonthetube.com/videos/black-history-month/rashaan-roland-kirk.html

My mother proudly said to young Pete C of Jack Ruby, "Ya know, he's Jewish!"

And we honor him by spelling his name right!

But maybe he kept his word and quit hugging.

Saw that when I got to the office--we were next to the trading division which had a big-screen TV. A bit earlier I saw the first tower in flames live from the subway on the Manhattan bridge. In a slightly different vein, summer of '73, the summer between h.s. & college, I was glued to the TV for the Watergate hearings. Indeed.

This may be a better likeness.

I'm neither in Great Britain, the United Kingdom, nor England. I am in Great Brooklyn.

Not the same chair, but I think it's a good likeness of Brownie.

Chaise lounge is an American corruption of the French chaise longue (long chair). I guess it was conflated with lounge chair. In Brooklyn it's pronounced "Shea's Lounge." I remember hearing the Fontainbleau hotel in Miami Beach always being called the "fountain-blue." Even if there were a session going on, I think the mix would be different from that perspective...
