  2. Part of the reason for the $5.95 domestic charge is that Daedalus also sells books. Several decent sized books can eat up that charge pretty quickly.
  3. All the best to both of you!!
  4. F My bad - the delivery charge I quoted was for domestic orders.

    Thanks for posting the story, brownie. Seems as if a person who's right for that house is living there.
  6. The Daedalus mail order catalogs say $5.95 per order, no matter what size.

  12. Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions - disc 2 - Nappy Lamare, Eddie Miller, Ray Bauduc, Marvin Ash I was a bit wary before I listened to these sides, but I found there was a fair amount to enjoy, even if I wouldn't classify any of it as classic.

  15. After all this, I'd like to see a performance of The Rivals - or, barring that, I want to at least read it.

  17. I'm reading John Dufresne's Deep in the Shade of PARADiSE, and there are a number of malapropisms that pop out of the mouths of characters in the book. One of my favorites: Ouida said, "Alvin Lee first noticed me when I was Queen of Vacation Bible School and he was preaching on The Song of Solomon, and he called me up to the front of the tent and asked could I sing a song to Jesus Christ, my personal Lord and Savior, and I reckoned I could and I sang acapulco - you know, without music - sang 'The Solid Rock.' " I was reminded that a good friend had told me about a co-worker of his who misused words unintentionally in a humorous fashion and emailed him the above. He got back to me with one his co-worker's classics: "I went to dinner at the Coronary (Culinary) Institute." Anyone here heard any good ones? edit - Joan, my wife, recently informed me that the word malapropism comes from Mrs. Malaprop, a character who misused words in R.B Sheridan's play, The Rivals.

  20. People can judge for themselves - PBS is broadcasting Sondheim! The Birthday Concert tonight at 9 p.m. (at least in NYC). I'm not a Sondheim fan & don't know if this will be representative of his work, but it should at least provide a taste for those who are unfamiliar with his songs.

  22. Just found the time to watch this. Thanks for posting. And, as Larry says, Bob Cranshaw does come across as a very nice guy.
