Very jealous of that beautiful Court Jester art. She is lovely.

Records are my collecting hobby. I’ve even been to a record fair or two at the same Armory in NYC.
I probably have 8,000-9,000 records. Some of monetary value, some of only sentimental value.

What I wish I still had is the rolls from our player piano we had when I was a tyke. Back then, they still put some contemporary songs out on rolls. My folks had to give the piano away when it didn’t fit into a house we moved to.

I remember we had the piano roll from “The Morning After” from The Poseidon Adventure.

I slept rather well, and all three cats behaved until 5:30, when Stella's continuous need for food took over As soon as she leaped off the bed, I knew we were heading for disaster. I rose immediately, turned on the light, chased her off the night stand, and a small doisaster was averted. Lately, all three cats have had an urge to get on top od the night stand and spill things onto the floor.

I got no work accomplished on "Together wherever we go" yesterday, so I must finish that today.

DR Rodzinski - after viewing the video clip you posted last night, I am speechless.

Speechless, I tell you.

When does a joke become a "dad" joke?

When it becomes apparent.

Two key backers of the San Antonio Philharmonic have demanded the return of their $180,000 contributions, which they say were loans.
The orchestra's CEO says they will contest the claim in court.

Good morning, all.

I slept a little better than I have the past few nights, but I still couldn't make myself get up when originally planned.

I remember we had the piano roll from “The Morning After” from The Poseidon Adventure.

Coincidentally, someone recently posted a few mp3's of piano rolls his family had (and had sadly gotten rid of), and I was surprised to see "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever" among the oldies. And your example is so much later.

That poor San Antonio Philharmonic (formerly Symphony) orchestra can't catch a break.

It's kind of like the UNLV quarterback deciding not to play any more games this season because he didn't get the money he was promised.....

I collect some books - I have a few first editions...including a first edition of Atlas Shrugged and a paperback collection of three Edward Albee plays signed by EA hisseff.

And a book about Broadway originally owned and signed by Arthur Laurents....and some other odds and ends.
