"By words, the mind is winged" - Aristophanes

Patti Smith gives some advice about travel and flying. I love this tone of hers; I dig her advice, too. (She's big into dental care these days.)

Thanksgiving was relaxing and very nice. Then, I spent a lovely day with divinetailor, having soup, looking at collage, talking. Today, I attended a very beautiful wedding, of a couple who have been together for 25 years. Tommorow is empty and quiet--I'll have breakfast with The Musician, do some work, take Mariah to run around somewhere.

Things are very calm. Money, nutrition, teaching schedules, Lennon tribute on my mind.

Just stuff

I joined Biznik, "radical self promotion'...it's business networking, but more.

Special plans afoot for the Lennon tribute, at Nietzsche's on November 30. Be there or be unenlightened.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Congratulations, Jim Whitford!

My friend and neighbor, local musician Jim Whitford, was recently inducted into the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame. I love Jim's songs, and he is unfailingly humble (don't let him fool you; he's great!). Gusto had a nice interview with him tonight, and then I got to see him play with one of my favorite local groups, The Possums, who only play about every 18 months. If ya missed it, I know you're sorry.

(This shot is from a gig at Sportsmen's Tavern in December, 2005. That's Jim, Rob, and Joe, l-r.))
