Here are a couple of shots I took on a recent trip to California. This is Mt. Rainier, basking in the glow of the late afternoon sun and embraced by acres of clouds. I really loved this scenario, and grabbed my camera as fast as I could. https://farm1.staticflickr.com/356/19456878986_67df0eb1aa_b.j...

I've been jonesin' for some really authentic southern grits and corn meal, so made the plunge a few minutes ago and have the following on the way from South Carolina. I bought stone ground White Grits and Yellow Corn Meal on Amazon with a Father's Day gift card from Justin (jtx here). Corn meal is n...

Looks delicious, Ron. Joanne and our granddaughters made a similar dessert for today's cookout. They're called Patriotic Pudding Parfaits, which are made with vanilla pudding, strawberries, blueberries and whipped cream. Enjoy your day! Thanks, Jimmy! I saw those photos and it looked like they were...

Based upon your criteria, I think you'll really enjoy A Chef's Life, Lenny.

Thanks. Glad that you like the changes on Jazztalk.

Our original plans for grilling outside on the 4th of July were curtailed by a ban of all open fires, charcoal grills, etc. It's far too dangerous in this dry season, but we're a bit bummed, nonetheless. So, we cooked inside today ... the traditional fare, hot dogs, hot links, potato salad,...

What are your plans for the 4th of July? We will have a slightly modified celebration this year due to our grandson Reed being involved in a Little League Baseball All-Star tournament which is ongoing. So, for the 1st time ever, our son Darren will not be in Alaska on the 4th of July, nor will his f...

You're very welcome, everyone. It's my pleasure to do what I can to continue the journey on this special little jazz board. I appreciate everyone's involvement at every level. As posters, it would be wonderful if you would tell a friend about us or nudge a current member to post again or more often....

Do we need to generate a new icon for Thorne rankings of movies and stuff? One of these, perhaps?



Two of them look like very dangerous dunce caps!

I've always loved Ahmad Jamal, beginning with this classic. It's Ahmad's 85th birthday today.

Happy Birthday ...

What fabulous, overdue news! My wife and I have been fans of Misty for years, and now she finally gets proper recognition and status. Congratulations, young lady! Your tenacity and elegance is truly remarkable. http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100917031051/logopedia/images/5/54/The_New_York_Time...

Although I didn't spend an enormous amount of time listening to your new system during our recent visit, I heard enough to impress me with it's qualities. Those Wharfedales are quite transparent and tight while delivering ample bass response. Your little MyAmp amp/preamp really gets the job done ......
