Peter Johnson Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 Recently noticed Rooster hasn't been around since mid-July; definitely not the norm for him! Maybe he's just on vacation--hope everything is alright!!! Quote
ghost of miles Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 That is unusual--maybe one of us should drop him a PM? Or did he take a sabbatical? Quote
Free For All Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 I've been wondering myself. I'll give him a call and see what's up. Quote
Spontooneous Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 Saw Tom last week. He's been working on a political campaign, home repairs and job hunting. His cable modem's been messed up, though. Still the same Tom -- just not online at the moment. He shall return. Quote
Free For All Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 (edited) Just spoke to our friend Rooster. He's been very busy as of late doing volunteer work for a local politicial candidate, and also he had a major computer meltdown. He sends his regards to all and assured me he'd be checking in in the next couple of days. I told him he was missed 'round here. Edit: Looks like 'Toon beat me to it!

jazzbo Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 So thank gott that rumor about his abduction by aliens was either untrue or a novel approach to jobhunting! Quote
Brad Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 Well, good to hear he's ok. We all probably need a sabbatical every now and then. Quote
bertrand Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 I thought he was at the month-long Andrew Hill seminar in Greenland. Bertrand. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted August 11, 2004 Report Posted August 11, 2004 Strange to see this topic today; I was just wondering last night where Tom was...glad to hear he's only absent because he's busy. Maybe that'll inspire me... Quote
Free For All Posted August 12, 2004 Report Posted August 12, 2004 Maybe that'll inspire me... Yeah, THAT'S it! I'll start that big band arrangement and maybe chronologically alphabetize my CDs. And then I'll replace all those broken jewel cases and maybe finish reading all those Brad Mehldau liner notes. And then I'll.....<yawn>...and then I'll...i'l fibish mr fgohd..dder..prefhsdk..flanston....zzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZ Quote
Peter Johnson Posted August 12, 2004 Author Report Posted August 12, 2004 Good news...glad all is well. Come back when you've got time, Tom! Quote
chris olivarez Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 RT come out,come out wherever you are. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 (edited) Hi gang. I'm back!! Actually, my PC got back up and running late last week, and I've been just 'lurking' every now and then, since then... ...a self-imposed ban on myself being on the board, until I got a long-overdue package in the mail to Couw, to whom I've owed some CD's from a trade we set up a long, long, long time ago. Couw, that package went in the mail to you this afternoon (at 4:30pm), and I spent the extra $$$ to sent it to you air-mail (4-7 days), vs. ground (4-6 weeks). I figured I took so damn long to get this in the mail to you, that I'd better spring for the extra postage to get it to you more quickly. I know that doesn't even begin to make up for how long I took to fulfill my part of our trade, but I figured it wouldn't hurt any to try to get it to you more quickly. Couw, please let me know when it arrives, and hopefully the 16 discs (total), most of which are CDR's of either OOP material, and/or live concerts that were never commercially available, will help to make up for the time it took me to get my shit together and get all those discs sent off to you.

ghost of miles Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Ah, the Return of the Rooster! Should be an album... Quote

Rooster, welcome back! Couw has been holidaying and is now heading back home slowly. Saw him when he was in Paris. He did not look depressed to me Quote
