I tripped over my girlfriend's bra, seemed to be a booby trap.

Opus One — Tommy Dorsey Orchestra

Opus In Pastels — Stan Kenton

Águas de Março (a.k.a. Waters of March) — Mark Murphy Jazz standard by Tom Jobim and done by many. I like Mark's take on it.

Madness? Basket Case — Green Day

My roommates are concerned that I'm using their kitchen utensils, but that's a whisk I'm willing to take.

Alto Madness — Richie Cole

Thanks. On the list for later. IMO Cole Porter was one of the very best of that era. Notes ♫

My wife told me to stop speaking in numbers. But I didn't 1 2.

Another Star — Stevie Wonder

It looks like I am not going to be able to get any help to unlock my band's account. I opened a new personal account to try to find help on FB. I couldn't get on with the old one, so it was worth a try. Instead, I got a few people who are willing to help me, but they want money to do so. IMO, there is nothing wrong with trying to sell their services to me, but I don't want to pay to save a free account. It just seems wrong. I've only posted once on the new account, and it was on a Meta help page, where the offers for help came in. Now I'm getting friend requests from dozens of people I don't know. So I'm going to have to close this account. My old band account is still visible, I just can't edit it or post on it. And it has a link to my website where anyone on the web can visit me. So my solution is to either let this one become stuck in limbo, or whatever happens to an unattended account in Facebook. Eventually, I'll make a new band site on FB, but I've wasted too much time trying to fix this one, so I'm not in a hurry to start. I've always questioned why people would want a Facebook Business page, where only FB members can access it, when he/she could have a World Wide Web page where anyone on the Internet can access it, FB or not. But either I'm missing something, or just too logical. Notes ♫

Soul Serenade — King Curtis

(Damn This) Traffic Jam — James Taylor

I don't trust people who do acupuncture. They're back stabbers.

Me too!

Turn it off. Live without it. You don't need it at all. I live in Florida and don't use the AC for a number of reasons: I gig and spend a lot of time doing activities outdoors. Seasonal acclimation is slow. If you live in AC, you will never get acclimated to the heat. — If I lived in an AC refrigerated box, I'd not only suffer more outdoors, but I'd be more prone to heat stroke or heat exhaustion when outside. My electric bills are much lower I'm breathing fresh air, instead of recycled air, slowly getting lower in oxygen content AC units are the biggest residential usage of electricity for most people. The power grid emits CO2, plus the AC unit creates a heat island outdoors. Both of these contribute to global warming, which makes the world hotter. — That means your AC unit has to work harder, which uses more electricity and makes the heat island hotter. — ||: That means your AC works even hotter, heating the planet even more. :|| (repeat ad infinitium.) To cool my home in an environmentally friendly and money saving way, I did this: (1) Painted my roof white. When I was a child in Pre-AC Florida, everybody had a white roof, because it is a cool roof. (2) Planted shade trees all around my house, but not over the roof itself. — The white roof reflects the heat, and the air rises. Then the cooler air from under the trees rushes in to take the place of the hot air. No matter how hot it gets outdoors, it rarely gets over 80 degrees inside. Fans take care of the rest. That's how people in Florida cooled their houses when I was very young, and I see no reason to change now. When I gig outdoors, and other bands are suffering, I'm OK, because I'm seasonally acclimated. Over 99% of the humans who have lived on the Earth did fine without AC, I see no reason for me to live with it. Of course, that's just me. Notes ♫

Exactly. Paying to have a free account fixed raised a big red flag. Now I have a few others wanting to help. I tell them right away, “I know you are trying to make some money, don't waste your time with me, because it's not worth it to me. And good luck to you, we all have to make a living.” They could be nefarious, but they could be just trying to sell their services. After all, that's what I do as an entertainer. I give them the benefit of the doubt, and treat them kindly. Now I'm going to have to delete this account. I may start over in a while, but I'm in no hurry to do so. I have more important things to do with my time, like hanging out in the Coffee House. Notes ♫

Should this go here or the lame music cartoon thread?
