CDs are worthless only if you regard your collection as a financial investment.

Very fine date - I've had it since it was released. Might not be your usual thing, but it also might expand your horizons.

Happy Birthday!

A Very Happy Birthday To You, Jeff!

Thanks for that one, Guy. If I had to go to a desert island, a Sempe book would be one of the things I'd like to bring with me.

Thanks for all of the good wishes. Had a quiet but very good birthday. As I get older, I find that it's a good thing to try to make every day a good one.

How can we hold you up to scorn and ridicule if we don't know what you've listened to. I really just wanted everyone to be impressed with my near-mint deep groove first pressing of whatever it was that I listened to. Sorry I didn't get it. Too subtle for me.

Over the past week or so - Dylan's "Temporary Like Achilles" and "Fourth Time Around".

A manager I respected - RIP, Mr. Anderson. This may not be the place for this, but I'm reminded of a piece that Bill James wrote years ago about what various baseball managers would be doing if there were no baseball. The two I remember were - Billy Martin would be doing five to ten for manslaughter, and Sparky Anderson would be a house painter. When I read it, I thought, yeah, I could imagine both of those being true. I can also remember seeing an television interview where he was humorously complaining that people thought that he was much older than Mickey Mantle, when in fact he was three years younger.
