Reet Petite - Jackie Wilson Tomorrow is "Old Rock Day" so I dug back to the 1950s for this one:

Definition: Canadians: people who live in the attic of an insane asylum - - - - - - - - - I've enjoyed every trip I've made to Canada, and found the people to be extremely polite and friendly. Even if they to talk funny ;) Notes

New answer: Q: How many acoustic guitars in the back seat? A: Never enough

Personally I'm sick of the methane propaganda, and so is Cornell University and the Environmental Defense League. As published in the peer-reviewed journal, Elementa: People tend to equate methane with cow farts (though their burps are worse), but we may be pointing our fingers in all the wrong places, according to a new study. The production of ammonia for fertilizer may result in up to 100 times more emissions than has been previously estimated for this sector. And that alone is more than what the Environmental Protection Agency estimates all industries emit across the U.S. https://earther.gizmodo.com/just-one-tiny-industry-may-emit-more-methane-than-epa-h-1835376030 I'm not criticizing vegans. If someone doesn't want eat dead furry animals, it's OK with me. I eat dead furry, scaly and feathery animals plus dead plants, but only those that I like the taste of and seem to agree with my body. I'm a picky eater. Think I'll have a cheeseburger with becan for lunch - and hold the lettuce. Lettuce is the #1 cause of salmonella poisoning. And I'll silently thank the cow and pig for providing me with sustenance. I'm grown up now and nobody can tell me what to eat and what not to eat. Oh I guess they can tell me, but I can ignore it. And to keep it on the TOS, last night on the gig I played "Cheesburger In Paradise" and it went over well. This is what influenced me to have a cheeseburger for lunch today. Of course I'll use 100% grass-fed, organic beef, so I don't pollute the environment with that methane producing fertilized corn that they give cows on the feed lot. I'll choose imported cheddar cheese because the European cows produce A2 milk, not the A1 milk that the majority of the US produces - and they don't use rBGH hormone with makes life miserable for the dairy cows. I guess I'm a lacto-ovo-fisho-beefo-pork-o vegetarian Notes

I can't quite agree with you. I'd have to substitute chocolate for the tobacco.

Everywhere. And in TVs and Movies, saxophones are played during lust scenes, and violins played when it's true love. That's why I chose saxophone as my second instrument and my primary instrument (drums was first, both get the girls).

"Paint It Black" - Rolling Stones

Time for "Strip steak" ?????

We need more sax and violins

Fancy Colours - Chicago

Something different from the "Queen Of Latin Soul", La Lupe Oriente - La Lupe & Tito Puente (one of her lest wild numbers)

Happy New Year y'all. How did you bring in 2020? Did you stay up to greet the new year or welcome it in the morning? Do you even care? (Yes I know the date is arbitrary) I did what I have done every year since I was 18, gigged and at the stroke of midnight, played "Auld Lang Syne" in the key of F concert (C on my tenor sax). That is every year but one when an agent double-booked us and we lost the "coin toss". Last night it was for a group of mostly crazy and wonderful French Canadians who are escaping the cold temperatures by spending the winter here in Florida. They hit the dance floor on the first song, and it wasn't empty again until we packed up our gear. When we were done we got hugs, hand-shakes, and those European two cheek kisses. It was so much fun we played 4 hours straight without a break. And at the end of the night the RV park paid us money and asked us to come back next year - bonne année. Today I get to spend the day with my dear wife who is also my best friend, the better singer in our duo, and a fine guitar and synth player. Just living the dream. Notes
