mikeweil Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Thank you so much, my friends - some of the nicest birthday cakes I ever got! I had some friends here yesterday, and I even got some CDs as gifts - which usually nobody takes a chance at after seeing my collection - a beautiful Youssou N'Dour CD, Egypt, and one by a well known German satire writer which all had us ROTFL ... and a friend gave me the John Lee Hooker DVD. After lunch with a friend my wife and I had to go to work, and I made the mistake to visit the Frankfurt Zweitausendeins store afterwards - wanted to see if they still had the last Thad Jones/Mel Lewis reissue, which was gone, but they had a bunch of Fantasy/OJC CDs at great prices, so I bought me some more gifts and only two of them were latinized. No, I'm not cheating - this is for the Gods only, I really turned 51, and I certainly feel more tired like last year. I will do my best to get the Tjader disco finished before the first digit changes, and hold up the Blindfold torch. The Guaguancó will be played tomorrow when my longest standing student group dops by for drumming lessons. p.s.: Big Al, did you know what you were saying? Quote
mikeweil Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Thanx a lot, John - I will let you know what I think about it! Quote

Big Al Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 p.s.: Big Al, did you know what you were saying? Wellllll....... it's been about 18 years since I took a German class, but I think I said, "Happy birthday, my friend, and Tjader RULES!!!" (Hey, at least I didn't call myself a jelly donut! ) Quote
Dave James Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Hey Mike...hope ya'll had a good one. Appreciate your insights here. Up over and out. Quote

mikeweil Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 (Hey, at least I didn't call myself a jelly donut! ) No you didn't, but wished me a merry Xmas instead ... Quote
Big Al Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Helige sheist!!!! (Actually, I thought about that this morning in the shower! Mehr bier, herr ober! JETZT!!!!) Quote
mikeweil Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Sounds very much to me what an elder Blue Note Board member once e-mailed me about his German lessons in the army in the 1960's - he was stationed not very far from where I live. I better not correct your first exclamation ... Quote
Big Al Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Well.......... YOU know what I meant! And I just realized that I misspelled "heilige!!!!!" SHEESH!!!! Man, I better watch out, my birthday's in a week or so! Quote
