  1. 36?? What...the Coltrane Prestige box? That including insurance? I just sold one last week and had shipping to Europe/UK posted at $25. Glad someone here bought it or I would have taken a hit on the shipping. Vajerzy, how much more do you think the 12x12 Riverside box weighs than your cube? A good bit.....or something marginal like the weight of 5 or 6 marshmallows?
  2. Probably belt down a few favorite beers & munch some cheese curls.... then have a monster BLT w/lots of mayo on toasted Pumpernickel w/some Spaghetti O's......a slice of pecan pie plus a large Toblerone candy bar.
  3. Yes, some other Lateef/Rich/Newman/Evans/Vaughan/etc titles found here: http://blog.roodo.com/sampan/archives/2507313.html
  4. I was reading up on the Gary McFarland Orchestra w/Bill Evans LP at a site and was curious about the "famed" collection that was mentioned? Never heard of it/him....what's it all about? Those two YouTube NBC clips that were removed -- are they posted at another online site? ....I'd like to see them. http://www.jazzwax.com/2007/08/the-early-autum.html
  5. This son votes 'Son'!
  6. Thanks for the update......I'll skip buying this one.
  7. Same here.....package arrived in A+ condition. Thanks, Steve!
  8. That's kind of a cheap shot. I've bought Savoys and stuff from him before and there was never a whiff of difficulty.
  9. Damn! Make one tiny cosmetic change and I'm 100% with ya!! Eli Manning (haven't liked him since his pre-draft refusal to play for the team that was going to (and did) draft him, the Chargers) Dan Snyder Terrell Owens (i'm softening a little though, but don't think I'll truly ever like him) Jerry Jones (love/hate kinda thing) Barry Bonds Texas
  10. Was that the year that Milwaukee somehow managed to beat us 4 times during the season? ..or was it 5?
  11. Been eating healthy to the max all week, so tonite it's: + Rice + BBQ Beans + + 2 episodes of
  12. I have the mint mini-lp (AMCY-1179) that I'd trade for the Brubeck-Desmond K2 mini-lp (VICJ-60360) if you happened to have it at hand?
  13. NFL honchos and the army of sports writers/commentators will be doing worse than that if the unthinkable happens this weekend and the Packers & NE both nosedive leaving us with NY/SD. At least if the Pats lose, there's still Brett to form a triple wagon train around and they can all spend boatloads of time kicking around the 'Can the magic be kept alive for another year?!!!' question. If there's no Brady....no Favre, what on earth do they all do?? Fawn over Eli????
  14. I dunno, it's difficult to derive pleasure from watching the hapless walk into walls and self-destruct. Too easy....like pulling wings off a pathetic little fly. On the other hand, watching dangerous, unrepentant sociopaths like Mr. 'If I Did It' OJ get his crank stuck in the wringer at near every turn is somewhat amusing. Crowd pleasing stuff there!
  15. Phew....Giants managed to hold on so that Eli can get creamed up in Green Bay!! Looked to me like the refs 'missed' that face mask that Crayton pulled as he was heading toward the end zone on the 2nd to last (Dallas) play. How convenient. That was some poor NYG play halfway into the 4th when Eli was trying to move his team out of the zone and he's going with the run on 2nd and 5 ????? Come on, Eli...that's when you've gotta throw a little 6 or 7 yarder to your tight end.....not run. That's why the Patriots are so good -- Brady will throw it anytime, anywhere and isn't timid.
  16. Missed all discussion about this one but just added it to Netflix queue.
  17. Well the way it was looking there at the start of the 4th with that quick flurry of half-baked pass int. calls against SD, it looked as though the refs were determined to hand it to the Colts.
  18. The only negative is that it'll be staged in another of those domed (eg. MN, MI..) or Miamizonaesque settings when it should be held someplace like a Lambeau, Heinz, Cleveland or Arrowhead.... It's just wrong to be out there basking in the sun and sipping Corona Lites at the Super Palm-Frond Bowl. Time to get real.
  19. They're the only team capable of nailing the Pats -- good cornerbacks....excellent pass rush.....wide receivers that routinely get another 15 or 20 yds after a catch. Forget Indy....they're fixin' to get hosed a few hours from now.
  20. If not wanting to get cracked over the head with a broken bottle or stampeded to death while trying to escape soccer hooligans makes me a wimp, then you can place my name at the top of the list. Little by little though that's changing. Instead of routinely assailing one another with bottles & chairs, they've decided to channel their energy into getting it all out of their systems on New Years Eve. Fun! .... Next year try for 35 and dare the Belgians to match it!!! Twenty-two schools in the Netherlands were set fire to during New Year's Eve. Three schools were completely burnt out, insurance company Centraal Beheer Friday reported. The damage to the schools amounts to over 20 million euro, according to the insurer. The company feels schools should do more to prevent fires. Cameras and sprinkler systems could be installed, a spokesperson explained.
  21. Hey, if you experience any problems with the electrical system while on the road, ring me up and I'll grab my best voltage meter and quickly swing on over to check things out. Thing has never let me down!!
  22. ....heck with her then, I want a room there!!! Looks like Old Europe heaven!
  23. Just finished perusing the article about Chateau Elysee in the current issue of The New Yorker in which one dutiful staffer pulls out the green book full of LRH's dictates ('Celebrity Centres should work to rehabilitate old or faded artists'). So why isn't she being whisked off to Celebrity Centre and right on up to the L. Ron Hubbard Suite? She ain't old...but she's faded -- or at least fading fast!
  24. Commenting (handwringing actually) on tv a couple of days ago about the impact the writers strike would have on the Golden Globes, Oscars awards shows with so many stars not showing up, the correspondent likened it to people going to the zoo and there not being any animals around. 'Can you imagine?', she sighed mightily.
