[The Mayor]

Why Thank You ! And always a huge THANK YOU for all you do here Kathy!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...did you have good lessons today?

A/C still up and running?

[left that other site]

Ah Yes! Monday is a very busy day!

The A/C is working too...but due to T-Storms, my porch is soaked again.

Pastor had a long talk with the guitar player.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Flirting? And G-Pa just loves it as he tries to keep up.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Maybe something just scared him off...hope he gets over whatever it was so you can be a trio again.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Off for home...back in a bit.

It was the curse of perfectionism. Some people have trouble being spontaneous in music. They have to have everything written out.

Which is great for the Classical orchestra, but doesn’t really work with Rock.

[HiJinx]

See you when you get back.

Hi again, Kathy! The morning commute was smooth as silk - hit the office in 40 minutes. In fact, I got there so early, I had to sit in the Parking Garage for a few minutes to catch the 7:05 call from Joe Di Genova on WMAL Talk Radio.

We're in the forties here tonight. We didn't even hit 70 this afternoon. Which is fine with me - I don't do well over 70F. I am amazed at how fast the hours of sunlight are decreasing. It seems like only last week I was contending with sun glare on the morning commute - now I'm in the Office at or before sunrise.

I hope you've had a good day at work and that the new system is starting to work right. Nothing more of a pain than lousy software!

Good evening, ML!

*HUGS*

Indeed, some classical musicians have to have things written out. Yet I had the privilege to sing in Chorus under the baton of Rafael Fruebeck du Burgos - "The Damnation of Faust." He conducted without a score.

On another occasion, we were singing "Alexandr Nevsky" with a Russian soprano, whose name I forget, who sang without notes.

Even I, a not-so-humble chorister, customarily digested the material to the point that I did not need to carry a score into the performance.

Do you think that I may possibly have the stuff to to be a Rock Musician? It's been my life's dream!

[Kathy in Alaska]

I’m back....and spent some time with my Mom...gonna have to give a look for something for her to try for arthritis. Bayer, Excedrin? ?? She does NOT want to go to a doctor, but today “was her worst lately” for her knees said she.

How’s Nana doing since going back to work? Tired? Glad to be back?

Air Combat Command? When did this change? I thought that was a SAC base when I was in. Gez, did they change the name of Alaskan Air Command too?

[Kathy in Alaska]

My day was productive....I got lots of little things done and late time or saved stuff entered.

All in all a good day.

The sun just came out here and it’s almost 40 degrees.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Well...since you ARE the Music Director, maybe you can get him to loosen up a little with time.

[ConorMacNessa]

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!

Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.
