A couple weeks ago, she wore this gossamer thin purple dress -- still tasteful, but I told her I loved that dress, purple was one of my favourite colours. Two days later, she wore another purple dress, this one while still being extremely tasteful, made my knees buckle. "DID YOU WEAR THAT JUST FOR ME?!?!" I think pretty much everyone heard me, because they've been smirking when they look at me when she's in the same roomspace as me. I don't think I'll have to ask, but you know, she can wear anything she wants to. She can wear a burka for all I care. I just hope she says yes. (She told me she'd think about it, check her calendar and such.)

I just invited CGAW to Thanksgiving.

Egad, did you post that ironically? I got about 18 seconds in before I said, 'goodbye'. I usually enjoy what you post, but this was just too commercial for me. Did I post this already? I thought I did. I love the laid back sensual groove, and the video fits it perfectly, and the women certainly aren't difficult to watch:

Sazerac Rye is the deal of the century -- they only allow me to buy one bottle at a time here in Virginia, but I do every time I see it. I will have to try the Pikesville.

Voted.

Cockatiel + math rock ==

I bought way too many apples -- Honeycrisp, Piñata, Sweetango. I used to like Pink Lady best, but now I don't know. These Honeycrisp ones are enormous!

He tends to do shorter legs, but more of them, I wouldn't give up hope in 2019. Notice the dates on his site barely go past February. That's only 3 or 4 months away. I know I missed him in the DC area in a previous leg of the same tour -- the Philly date is already at least the second leg, and there could well be a third. To the Bone just won prog album of the year according to Prog magazine, so it wouldn't surprise me if he did a 3rd and a 4th leg. Interspersed with remixing yet another artist's entire catalog. Because he's a workaholic.

Anise is very much similar to the key flavour in liquorice -- it's a very distinctive taste. Not for everyone. I happen to have enjoyed it when I first started on the 1920 (went back and checked -- yes, it is, indeed, the one I found to have a note of anise to it), but by the end of the bottle, I was tired of it. It's also possible that not all bottles have a note of anise to it, and just the batch I got. I will try it again to know for sure. (It obvious wasn't that much of a turn-off to me, if I'm willing to try it again.) Me: flipping between Sazerac Rye, Rendezvous Rye, and Farmstock #2 Rye. Rye? Rye not?

Dusty Like.

I think the tracks from To the Bone (which didn't really do all that much for me) work better interspersed with the other tracks, and I really dig the track, "People Who Eat Darkness" as sung by Ninet. He plays several tracks that would have made me very happy -- "Ancestral", "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here", "Sleep Together", "Even Less". I'm actually tempted to go up to Philly at the end of November to see him, though I'm sure it will be an entirely different setlist by then.

Is that the one with a note of Anise to it?

I actually really liked my AudioValve RKV headphone amp. ? And I believe Helmut actually is the CEO.

Bourbon is made from corn -- perhaps make sure there's no corn in the mash of whatever whisk(e)y you drink. Or stick to (mostly) 100% rye, like I do. Mostly.

Why don't you just get one super-wide one? ?

I definitely agree with you regarding his work with Miles, and yes, most of his Return to Forever work, but Romantic Warrior is a standout. (The first three tracks are from that album. The other two are from Al Di Meola albums.) And I will admit to not being familiar with his entire catalog, but lyrical melodicism ( ) is top notch when it's there.

I love Chick Corea. One of the things I have always loved about his music is his melodies -- Medieval Overture, Romantic Warrior, Duel of the Jester and the Tyrant, Señor Mouse, Isfahan, etc. -- he always had a lyricism to his melodies that I much prefer to the more abstract jazzes. But he's done "simple" before -- specifically, the album that woke me up to his melodies, I rented from the library once and almost never returned it (I now have my own copy), Children's Songs. Definitely check it out if this interests you. I need to revisit Leprechaun and My Spanish Heart. I seem to remember they were particularly melodious as well, but I don't remember them that well, so I could be remembering wrong. So...thanks for sharing!

Heal well and quickly!

Prolly somewhere between rubbing alcohol and appletini

(makes a note of it) I haven't read anything like Tim Powers, so I will definitely give him a go.

...or an excellent choice.

I just couldn't figure out how to do it, otherwise I would.
