Real nice, thanks for posting it. I think I'll go have myself a dry martini.

That is great news.

I still have my dog on the same dry Iams she has always been eating, but I'm taking her in for an exam this week and going to see if I should change. I have no problem making the meals myself.

Beautiful! Did the man love to play, or what? Jo Jones as been a key part of so many great groups, bands and recordings it would be impossible for a dude like me to single out his best work. However, this one is definitely a favorite of mine. Check out "Stompy Jones".

Or, you could just inherit the money as so many of the fuckheads today have. Grandpa busted his ass so William Jr. and his kids would never have to work. My favorite is to be an incompetent executive, drive a company into the ground and still collect a ridiculous amount of money, get fired, collect even more money and never have to do a fuckin' thing ever again. Seriously, busting your ass is still a key ingredient for most, I know.

So, today I helped my parents through the agony of making a car deal. They picked out a shiny new silver Prius and traded off two Mercedes-Benz in the process. They're going to take the car back to Italy with them. Never thought I'd see the day of my father going Toyota let alone a Prius, but I think they made a fine decision.

R.I.P.

The Thad Jones sounds real nice.

Why are you referring to the cd as an "Ella Fitzgerald compilation album titled The Very Best of Cole Porter"? Ella is only on two tracks. Seems more like a compilation of various artists doing Cole Porter tunes, no?

That mail in rebate shit is the worst.

Salad with some grilled chicken.

Scary shit. I hope the list is complete, I've been feeding my dog Iams since day one.

I'm going to see this film tonight. 158 minutes! I hope I can keep my eyes open.

Nice! Happy Birthday, Conrad.

This was sad news. I met Jeni some years back while eating Arancini on 18th Avenue in Bensonhurst. Seemed like a nice dude.

I'm actually not here and am over there.

You got that right. One good thing is the ladies are all dressed (or undressed) for summer. It's still the Bizarro world though.

Bummer, I missed a Vinty Fresh BFT!

I hope these dudes are okay.

I arrive in Phoenix and it's in the mid 90s. WTF?

It's always good to have you here bro, no matter what you may call yourself. And for the record, I always knew, so there. Now go dig up that pain in the ass couw and we can have a party.

One of my all time favorite rock bands. I've got a lot of great memories associated with their music which sounds as fresh to me today as it did back in 76. R.I.P, Brad. Boston Vocalist Brad Delp Found Dead March 10, 2007, 12:00 PM CT Jonathan Cohen, N.Y. Boston vocalist Brad Delp, who sang on classic rock staples like "More Than a Feeling," "Don't Look Back" and "Long Time," was found dead at his southern New Hampshire home yesterday (March 9), according to local police. He was 55. The artist was home alone at the time and there was no indication of foul play. Delp powerful, high-register singing was an integral part of Boston's ascent to rock superstardom in the mid- and late 1970s. The group's self-titled 1976 album is often credited as the top selling debut in American history with 17 million copies; the 1978 follow-up, "Don't Look Back," shifted four million in its first month of release. However, the band went long periods of time without new music, reappearing sporadically with different lineups. A 1986 hit, "Amanda," re-energized Boston, but Delp exited in 1991 to pursue music with former Boston member Barry Goudreau. Boston went on to release just two new studio albums in the ensuing two decades. Delp returned to the band to sing on new songs recorded for a 1997 greatest hits album. Boston was said to have been working on a new release for the past several years, but no information has been revealed as to how far along the band was in the process. http://www.boston.com/ae/music/articles/20...ring_brad_delp/ From the bands website... "The nicest, kindest, most caring, down to earth rock star the world has ever known. May you rest in Peace"
