Very good!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Billie Holliday, sounds like Julie does too.

cool video leslee. It's all about the depths of the human mind, and in the end, it all fits together just fine. One must sometimes go to the depths to come up to the highest heights. Remind me to tell you about how I can sit on the bottom of a pool for several minutes. It does take practice.

Once I was a rabid Marx Brothers fan and wanted very badly to learn how to play harp, because Harpo could make it sound so sweet, and I loved Harpo. I was very young. Alas I could never find a harp I could afford, so I stuck to guitars. Me mum once said she tried to play a harp (she was a whiz on the piano, in Mike Pinder's realm) but she said the strings were very very hard to pluck and get a tone out of. In your spare time, look at harpist's arms, they are very very strong and muscular.

There are two types of harps, one is the orchestral we are used to, tall, huge. The other is a smaller "strolling minstrel" harp and they look heavy, straps and such involved. We have a harpist who comes around to the hospitals here and plays wonderfully.... me mum and I sang "Danny Boy" to it when mom was so sick and in hospital.

I still really like Harpo and Groucho tho. Groucho was a Libra, and played guitar pretty well too.

Everyone says I love you, but just what they say it for, I never knew
It's just inviting trouble for the poor sucker who sez I love you...........

Sphinx, that was really lovely music.... I think if one tried hard enough, you could do that on the guitar. Would take practice, which I don't do enough... I was just wondering how they would construct that bridge and castle in such a geologically precarious situation...........

eheheeh with a fish in my pocket. "Dig a little deeper" basically. Only if the concrete is poured into textile blocks!

that stalker is a self inflicted wound, you need to stop escalating. He thinks "No" means "yes" and I could name some other men not far away that think the same. Not mentioning names. A riot would erupt.

Communication is very important. Can't be vague, gotta be firm, direct, and clear. Even then some people just won't listen, alas.

OK back on topic everyone

Was just rewatching the Google hang out.... I had to run it back a few times to be sure, but Justin said he liked this song. I always liked it too (in fact, it was one of the first songs I learned harmony to when I was very small and just becoming aware of music) I thought I'd put it up.... a nice version out on youtube. Alas love can often be sad.... and dramatic........ but doesn't this guy have a really nice voice???

I wish I could get my hair to look halfway that good. That is a pre-Beehive. The Beehive got a lot more outrageous in the following years, turned into a Marge Simpson look. I like how Audrey Hepburn wore hers in *Breakfast at Tiffany's*

enjoyed the irish bluegrass on the Les Paul but alas it turned into wallpaper music about half way through.

My hair crawls too, to the baths!!! (spoken like a true Roman)
