Patty, That's all well and good, and we're all happy for you. NOW....please spell the word correctly and tell us what it means. Is that a difficult task for a sober woman of 64 years of age? DEEP OK. G-A-U-L-E-I-T-E-R. You're pretty sharp for an old fart. I hope I'm still as eagle-eyed as you when I am 78, as you have often said you are. I believe that the term refers to someone of pure German origins, for the purposes of recruitment in the Reich, the SS, or the German Army of the time. I'm no expert in German history, but it clearly was no compliment. Tough was wordy and quick on his liguistic feet, much like you.

Patty, I think you're cloaked in the fog of inebriation. What is the word you're actually trying to state? (Maybe you better team up with a dictionary) DEEP No. If I were enebriated, I would be doing a solo tango on my coffee table instead of posting. I'm not vocabulary shy, just spell-challenged, not an indictable offence, as far as I know. I was actually quoting Tough who was using a term born out of the Nazi era in Germany, referring to the process of voluntary recruitment. I assumed it wasn't a compliment, but it isn't in my dictionary, so that wouldn't have helped. I knew how to spell it, but decided to mis-spell it.

Patty, You better team up with WRETCHEL and work on the CHEERS violation. In short: Bag the Dorsey issue...DUH!! DEEP

Christiern (PAL O' MINE), The movie Girl Crazy was filmed between Jan. 4th and May 19th 1943. A very dear friend of mine (now departed) named Moe Purtill was on drums with Dorsey in that movie. If he were still alive I'd have your answer but an educated guess would be the late, great MAURICE PURTILL. It wasn't Krupa, Patty. DEEP

You mean you just grab people by the handles without looking at their faces?? I'm sorry, Patty. Bad joke. Check out the thread in Misc. non political for pictures of people. Put one of your on there too. Make sure you're wearing that Kriegskorset or whatever it's called. I do indeed grab people by their handles, so watch out!!!! I'll check out the gallery. Thanks. What's in Lansing, besides being the home of Organissimo, that would make it a good place for a gallion of Organissimo posters to meet?? Me, wearing just my Norwegian award for bravery in combat has not been immortalized on film, and probably won't be. There are almost no pictures of this humble scribe, since I'm usually the person behind the camera. But, I'm not as tall as I appear to be when I post.

PATTY, Pardon my impertinence but..IS YOUR NAME JSANGRY!!?? DEEP Your impertinence is pardoned. If you post your story, is it only for JSangry?? If so, I'll avert my gaze, as will all who view this thread, out of respect for your and JSangry's privacy. I just checked my passport and, having viewed the picture and the identity details, I am, indeed, NOT JSangry. My apologies for my own impertinence.

PATTY, Pardon my impertinence but..IS YOUR NAME JSANGRY!!?? DEEP

I never thought I'd ever say this to a man but,.......YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND. :blink: Now there's a HUMBLE HAND MAIDEN!! Don't say you heard it here (or from me) but: Woman are to be OBSCENE and NOT HEARD. Patty, For your welcomed subservience please allow me to extend to you a kiss (and there is some tongue in it). DEEP Received and appreciated.

PATTY, Here is where you were either Speed Reading, Day Dreaming, or needed to clean your glasses: An excerpt from my post: Just because one functions while under the influence does not mean his motor skills are impaired. In short: When motor skills are in gear while thought processes are convoluted they can make for a misundertood personality. DEEP (awaiting a ye or nay from CHRISTIERN re the *OLIVE BRANCH OF ALL TIME*)

I was being my usually silly self, Patty. My sister is Canadian (though she just moved to Toledo.) Been up to Canada many times. Actually, my passport has just expired also. I'm not going to bother renew it for a while. No need. In fact, I've got two expired passports now: British and American. Lots to do here....

There used to be an Irish band based in Nottingham, UK called Patty O'Doors and the Sun Loungers. I alwas though Hatfield and the North was an odd name - the band were named after the first sign on the M1. And one for the medieval history buffs that I've mentioned before - an English folk reggae band (seriously...dub meets morris dancing) who called themselves Edward II and the Red Hot Polkas. Sadly they changed this to Edward II and more recently EIIK.

Freddie Hubbard Slide Hampton w/ the Hampton Sisters James Spaulding Buddy Montgomery Melvin Rhyne Billy Wooten (long forgotten) Pookie Johnson Jimmy Coe Phil Ranelin and many others If any of you are in the neighborhood and can make it, drop me a line! I will be photographing both show and will try to post some of my work if I can figure out how to do it! Mark

Berigan: yes, dear, of course you must wear that blanket over your head before you go into walmart! Catesta: Wine and women bore me! Ron F: I'm gonna say something positive about Dubya tomorrow! Rooster: Andrew Hill sucks!! Johnny: Let's ban the politics section and actually discuss music and the arts!! Ghost of Miles: I've given up books and I'm watching the cartoon network from now on! Chris: Greg, you're really bright and know everything. Greg: Patty, you know why I gave you the best-looking robot icon, don't you? JSangrey: That does it: I'm getting outta here and moving to a real progressive State like Oklahoma!! And I'll play a real man's instrument like the harp!

i love Patty Smith. i've seen her twice (way back in the late 70's). she puts on a great show. i believe i have all of her recordings.

Goldfish Is Placed in Sling 17-Year-Old Goldfish Is Placed in Sling So He Can Swim Again The Associated Press SCOTIA, N.Y. April 25 — A 17-year-old goldfish can swim again thanks to a bunch of do-gooding humans. Customers at the Sky Port diner near Schenectady came up with the idea of a creating a fish sling after Dick the goldfish fell ill in November and had difficulty swimming. Patty Sherman, who owns the diner with her two sisters, Joanna Dewey and Mary Ann Parker, said Dick could barely move across the bottom of his fish tank located behind the counter. A customer whose daughter is studying to be a veterinarian had his daughter research fish ailments. She reported back that Dick was likely suffering from swim bladder disease and prescribed a diet of cooked peas to be hand fed to Dick three times a day, Sherman said. To remedy Dick's swimming problem, several customers devised a sling made up of fishing bobbers, drinking straws, gauze and string. When the 8-inch-long fish is placed in the sling, he's able to swim like normal. Sherman said customers find it relaxing to sit at the counter and watch Dick in his tank. "Everybody's rooting for him," she said Tuesday. "He's the topic of conversation at the Sky Port." photo credit and caption: Dick, a 17-year-old goldfish, rests in a sling in his aquarium at the Sky Port Restaurant in Scotia, N.Y.

Other ESP albums well worth investigating: - Giuseppi Logan Quartet - Albert Ayler 'Spirits Rejoice', 'Bells', - Sun Ra 'The Heliocentric World' volumes 1 and 2, - Paul Bley 'Barrage' - Patty Waters Sings - Sunny Murray

danasgoodstuff-just to clarify I don't have a problem with the early country/pop sound.What I was trying to get across was for those people who prefer the more traditional sound and were upset by the pop elements in todays mainstream country music.Those people point a finger at today's mainstream country artists when in fact country and pop mixing has been going on for sometime. clarifying part two-while I don't have a problem with the early pop/country sound (Patsy and Jim Reeves were quite good and the arrangements served them hansomely)I still think some of it is dreck but perhaps not as much as today like Toby Keith and Travis Tritt(two legends in their own minds.)Shania and Faith Hill(Yecch!!!). Thanks to artists like Patty Loveless and Dwight Yoakam country isn't in the vile state that it was when Olivia Newton-John won a CMA award but a certain degree of stagnation has set in or like George Strait and Alan Jackson sang "Murder on Music Row.

Patty's 'Mountain Soul' is indeed a great pleasure. If you like St. Emmylou's 'Roses in the Snow' you'll enjoy the Loveless. As to her mainstream country records they all have that glitzy pop-country sound with rather 'paint-by-numbers' rawk guitar bits and anodyne fiddle; but the songs stay in your mind and her voice is very affecting. I strongly recommend 'Long Stretch of Lonesome' - the duet with George Jones ('You Don't Seem to Miss Me') is a spinetingling bit of harmony singing. For other more bluegrassy or raw recent country seek out the great Gillian Welch, the consistently excellent Julie and Buddy Miller and vocalists like Heather Myles and Kelly Willis.

I was just teasing about Shania. She's okay. My wife loves her music. I just like to have fun because the production of her latest albums are so non-country. I'll see if my wife has any Patty Loveless. I'm not really up on the current singers. Most of my country comes from Bear Family or old lps.

I thought 'The Woman in Me' was a great pop-country album. I was less impressed by the one that came next but could understand its popularity. I havn't heard the recent one - the odd song I've heard on the radio hasn't really drawn me in, probably because of all the reservations mentioned above. If you want great pop-country female vocals go for Patty Loveless - whoever does the quality control on her song choices rarely lets you down!
