  1. I've got plenty of experience with puppies, but can give no advice on discipline. My Chihuahua is partially responsible for my divorce. Funny thing is I didn't even want the dog to begin with. My current girlfriend loves the dog but can easily get pissed off with her and frustrated with me. I can't help but spoil the shit out of her. So, let me know if you want to know my secrets.
  2. Am I reading this right? He hopes to donate $40K (1/3 of his profits) from this one cd that's not on a major label (I assume)? Is $120K a normal profit for a recording like this? I doubt it. At $13.00 a pop they would have to sell in excess of 9000 copies to generate $120K and that is before expenses. Has anyone ever heard of this guy? Don't get me wrong I think it's a fine cause and I wish him the best of luck. I'm curious though, is the goal 1/3 of the profits or $40K?
  3. Just tried it for the first time. A new window opening up would be nice.
  4. Have a great day!
  5. Watching TV this morning I saw a story that mentioned Buck was performing Friday night in Bakersfield and had to leave the stage in the middle of the show.
  6. I thought this was cool. Toon Tracker I found this site while looking for information on one of my favorite cartoons "Kimba the White Lion". My apologies if this has been posted before.
  7. KNIX is a monster in Phoenix.
  8. Yes, really. The man was a major country stylist, and a big influence in his day. He had already accomplished a lot by the time he got the Hee Haw gig. Very true.
  9. Man, this sucks. One of my all time favorites and one of the coolest dudes in a cowboy hat. R.I.P., Buck
  10. Crap, did I mention Cecil Taylor?
  11. This is most interesting. I missing some of the earlier big band leaders, although I do have a lot of them on compilations I bought when first exploring jazz. Fletcher Henderson Chick Webb Jimmie Lunceford.... Although I've got plenty of Basie and Ellington. Others that come to mind.... John Patton Albert Ayler Jack McDuff Larry Young I'm sure there are plenty more. The "only have a little of" would be a long list.
  12. I'll save my worst for when you disagree with or try and correct me on something. Until then, please accept this welcome as a gift on the day of my daughter's wedding.
  13. Amazing. I guess the guy was happy otherwise he would have retired, no? I'm glad to see they let him stay on for so long. It will be interseting to see what happens to him now.
  14. I hope the one who suggested this great idea is OK. Best wishes, NOF. I'm not going until beginning of next week, but I have to plan and wrap up lots of stuff before I leave. That's why I won't be around much. But thanks for asking and the good wishes. I'm sure things will turn out alright. Cheers! P.S.: I hope Jim will get some serious money this way. He's not going to get rich, but my hope is that it will help cover the substantial costs of running such a board as this. If members here try their best to shop via the search bar, things should turn out well after a while. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
  15. If given the chance to vote again, I would vote for this. Or, maybe we could just click on the mullet.
  16. Did Jim just say, FOUR-skins?
  17. Dang! Just when I thought things were going my way.
  18. Looks like I'm the first to vote.
  19. Is CDUniverse going to send you a list of every month of what people bought through the board? If so and you see an occasional , Barry Manilow, Carpenters, or Neil Sedaka being bought by me, they are for gifts.
  20. Jim, you may want to pin that cduniverse info somewhere so people will remember. Is it possible just to have a direct link from this site?
  21. Same here. And here.

    CD received. Thanks, John B and brownie.
  23. I'll do my part to help keep the big O going. I'd hate to see all the valuable information, great discussions and humor from this place get lost. Of course I do expect to see that sexy cover thread make it's return.
  24. Dan, did you notice the absence of the sexy album cover thread?
  25. "Bluetooth" was also a kid I went to Junior High School with.
