A small moment of pride for me.

Today is my AA birthday.  I have been sober for 17 years.

Congratulations, TCB!!

George, when will you interview for the new job?

Well, first I have to finish my application, then turn it in...the deadline is Friday.  After that, I would assume that they'll contact the interviewees sometime next week.

They finally closed on applications for our two empty positions.  If we are lucky, we might have employees to start training by November.

And now, I must be off.  I'm having dinner with my friend Margo at a local restaurant.

Until later!

I did warn him that, with the recording, I wasn't sure how much time I had between now and December, and maybe it will turn out to be somewthing for next Christmas. I've been wanting to do a new piece for my dad, an Appalachian requiem using folk songs and hymns about death, like "You've Got To Walk That Lonesome Valley," "Amazing Grace," and others. I'd lke to find a few funny ones, if they exist. I'll be spending some time with various Appalachian collections, I reckon.
John Jacob Niles is one great source. But he's not particularly humorous.

Niles is wonderful and I love his recordings. I saw him perform live in Lexington around 1973. He was also a very clever devil; a lot of what he collected, he elaborated on and then copyrighted as his own compositions. When you're dealing with something from Niles, you're often tied up in copyright issues from G. Schirmer.

I have his first collection of Appalachian carols from around 1935, published by G. Schirmer, and "I Wonder As I Wander" in its first appearance in print is credited as "collected from . . . by John Jacob Niles," implying that he notated the song as the singer performed it. By 1950 "I Wonder as I Wander" had been assigned a copyright as a song composed by John Jacob Niles!
Yeah, I've noticed that, too. It probably paid better that way.

By the way, I prefer the older lyrics ("poor, ornery people") of "I Wonder ..." to the more cleaned up, modern ones.

Uranus must have cleared up because today was much less wacky than yesterday.

today while I was at work the men came and took away my maple tree....I'm so very sad - lt was a huge tree - but it was half dead and had a huge branch hanging about 20 feet  high over a busy street - I was very worries that someone was gouing to be killed one of these days.... the squirrels and the woodpeckers, mockingbirds and red winged blackbirds will miss it -


now instead of looking out my door into the branches of the tree I just look at the oncoming headlight on  the street perpendicular to my house
