I watered the garden this morning and picked a tiny jasmine flower that smells like a gardenia. It’s not confederate jasmine. I don’t know the varietal. But that flower still smells great all these hours later.

Lovely

He was the only performer I ever camped out all night to get tickets to see. It wasn’t as good a concert as the one this film captures. I think he was already on painkillers when I saw him. But he was still electric.

Had a Cobb salad from Stanley's earlier and am thinking about getting some fruit for a snack. Maybe some assorted berries or melon or something like that.

Nice story with a happy ending DR RON PULLIAM!

We had a phone conversation that lasted 3 hours and 33 minutes, at which point I begged off.  So much information I must digest to catch up on 50 years!!!  It was great to talk, and there were memories each of us had that the other had forgotten about.

Surreal.  And exhausting, too.

I know the feeling.

The news out of San Antonio is heartbreaking tonight. More than 40 emigrants were found dead in the back of a truck.

Does anyone have a hand steamer to get wrinkles out of clothes?


I just gave my sister one for Christmas.

Monday.

DR TCB - the man on the left side of the picture is my single cousin Roe.

He is a big wig at Markey Audio Visuals who travels all over the country setting up video displays and sound equipment for large venues like stadiums and arenas.

Mostly he works for businesses holding their conventions, but he also does a few concerts, etc.


Looks like a nice guy!

DR George, I was surprised by the nudity yesterday. I do not recall ever encountering, during my time marching with the New York City Gay Men's Chorus, any completely naked people.

I know!  I was very surprised...and that no one really seemed to care.  There were some children around, but no one had any problem with it.  Nothing sexual was going on, they were just nude and getting cool in the fountain.


Were the Dikes on Bikes in the parade? They used to always be, at least, topless every year.

They may have been there, but I was only walking with the Mariners' group, so I didn't get to see the rest of parade participants.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Just put up a bunch of inexpensive out of print CDs from the Varese and Fynsworth years. Giving you dear readers first peek before I alert the media.


Do you happen to have PETER PAN?

My friend David sent me a link to see/download the pictures taken by the Mariners' professional photographer.

One of the available perks is a 2-fer of "Shakespeare on Broadway" and "Peter Pan."

TCB, yes, there's a copy of Peter Pan as a perk. If you don't need Shakespeare on Broadway (a wonderful album, BTW), I can separate them.
