  1. Another strange trend that I've noticed lately is towards old-style biblical type names like Zacharia. (and why does the name Madonna produce a kind of breast shape?)
  2. Here you go Lon. Lonson is not listed at all, but you can see "Lon" and it's other variations:
  3. Type in a name. you can place your cursor to find out how popular your name was when you were born: Baby Name Wizard
  4. Not really "procedure" - just courtesy. With the tea, it helps if you slow down too...
  5. The "extra" version has valerian (and doesn't stink ). Drink it about an hour before bedtime. Knocks me right out.
  6. Have you tried valerian or Sleepy Time tea?
  7. Yeah, no prob. Seemed an obvious way to handle it. Hadn't seen the thread in question, but it would seem that if there were a lot of back-and-forth over a topic, then it'd be polite to ask, but I don't know the nature and/or length of the exchanges. oh well...my two centavos...
  8. Click on the title while holding down your "control" button and you should have 5 options pop up. One of them is "Download Linked File." Highlight that and it should download immediately.
  9. Yes, still. Jim dropped a note to tech, but maybe there's been no answer or results.
  10. My drift/shift will happen October of 2008...but that's just fine with me.
  11. Guinea became an independent country on my b-day...
  12. Not if you're from the south.
  13. Eugene's great. I like his playing and writing and sense of humor. That bathroom incident could've been worse. When I used to manage a band, he was the opening "band" one night. He was going to stay at my place, but when I found out that it was to include his wife and children, we made other arrangements. At the concert that night, he was using our speakers and promptly blew them out - big delay until new speakers could be found...
  14. Thanks Jim! This is really generous of you (and the rest of the guys)! Hope the gigs keep flowin' in for the holidays (and after!) Have you been slipping these tunes in on your recent gigs? How's the response been?
  15. I think a minute or two is a nice compromise. I had a problem with the current function once because I, first, answered someone's question in the "what are you listening.." topic and then tried to post what I was listening to and it would just glob on to the previous. I missed the info about the 5 minute delay and so I thought that it was a incompatibility problem. Anyway, I'd vote for the compromise.
  16. Yes. Sun Ra was one of those "fixtures" in my growing up stage. Some of this was due to my mother's interests. In his "Sonny" days she had occasionally gone to the Club DeLisa. I'm trying to figure out who it was that she used to love to go see. (I'm mixing up Red Prysock, Arthur Prysock, and Red Saunders in my brain at the moment). Anyway, Sonny would "fill in" on some nights. Also, she very possibly saw him even earlier performing on Torrance Ave in a suburb of Chicago known as Calumet City. So my interest started as a child. Many of the Saturns had practically no information on them. I have some in white covers with and w/o center holes... some in a garish brown-gold...some with squiggles done in colored pens that would emanate from the center outwards...and so on. Of course, I'd buy anything that came out on other labels as soon as I could and living in Chicago it wasn't too difficult to go down to the JRM and pick up, say, a recording on Horo. The first performance that I remember was in '72 at an Ann Arbor festival. (Art Ensemble played too). I think it was around Sept 9, (a step-sister's b-day), but my mom claims that she took me to see him before that, but you'd think that I would remember that. Anyway, many performances after that and in cities outside of Chicago - even here in the Dallas area - well, Ft. Worth to be exact. A truly amazing man with an amazing gift. My wife (who'd seen him too) cried buckets of tears when he died.
  17. After well over a dozen performances seen and nearly 150 recordings later, I can safely say that your assessment is truly accurate.
  18. This Boucq character looks a little like Dr. Benway.
  19. Geben Sie mir Ihren Zylinder - ich glaube ich muss kotzen!
  20. Thanks for your kindness !!I think Chaney said "Busted" cause you now know (from the link) that he really isn't 18. Now, for my being 17...
  21. At that time, Vince Wilburn will be here:
  22. Hi Steven, One thing that you have to realize about all of us: WE'RE AGELESS!
