  7:15pm
Destroit:

Hello Waterloo! Daniel, the fact that you said "jaunty" makes me like you. And fuck Vancouver, head whipping bastards, an absolute shame to hockey.

  7:17pm
glenn:

  7:17pm
KP:

Is this a different mix of the Cat Stevens song? or is it just the way you play it.
Avatar 7:18pm
monica:

don (trip dub), frenchee - who among us hasn't had a cat stevens momnet? had a crush on him when i was a kid.
  7:22pm

I'll keep swingin' but cat is great music with a molestery vibe mixed in.

  7:25pm
Pasta:

@gary: So what am I, chopped liver? Hardly.

  7:32pm
Destroit:

Peoples track is great.
  7:34pm
listener gary:

The pasta with butter and fresh ground pepper sounds good. Better than the oatmeal with baked beans that I almost settled for.
  7:34pm
Pasta:

There ya go! Me and Al Dente, perfect dinner companions.
  7:36pm
Tir Chonail Abu:

Did my ears deceive me or did Butter feature a while back? Long time since I checked in but good to hear the tunes still as good and the old gang are still around with some new names, it's like walking back into an old fave bar with good sounds on the box and a hostess with the mostest behind the bar, maybe even on the bar. Hope all is well with all.
  7:36pm
triish:

garlic and olive oil, + basil/oregano if you've got it; parmesan in the fridge? frozen shrimp?

I heard a lot of worse than fag hag listening to Firesign Theatre today
  7:39pm

  7:40pm

i've stopped gardening. the fencing and plants cost more than if i had bought at farmstands after woodchuck and rabbit loss.
  7:40pm
cb1:

Oh Mo, don't even start on gardening - Cb2 made the mistake of sending me to the nursery today with too much cash in my pocket. Lovely stuff!
  7:40pm
CB2:

Amen, sister! Embrace your identity.
We just have to get you out to do some weedin' . . .
My motto as a gardener - you learn to cultivate what you can't kill.
  7:40pm
glenn:

ah gardening. gotta love it.

Check out the 'Plant Journal'----I'm not that into gardening---but enjoy this journal, as it's beautifully put together with photos, stories about plants, know-how stuff---and more. I started reading it because I was writing a fictional story about a couple and there beautiful Monstera Deliciosa.

Container gardening is low on weeding, but high on watering. Self-watering planters makes life easier for both you and the plant.

bachs minuet in g minor
  8:45pm
listener gary:

the closing theme for what radio show? TV? Perry como?
  8:46pm
Ace Wild:

The melody was adapted from "Minuet In G," a composition written by Christian Petzold. "Minuet In G" is often thought to be by Johann Sebastian Bach because it was included in a book of sheet music kept by Bach's wife Anna Magdalena. The song was written by Denny Randell and Sandy Linzer, who wrote all the original songs on the album and went to write some of the biggest hits for The Four Seasons. In our interview with Denny Randell, he explained that he started listening to "Minuet In G" at an early age. "I must have been about 5, 6" said Randell. "I was taking lessons at a very early age, and I loved that piece. It stuck with me. Over the years, I grew up and got more into music from a creative point of view. It's really interesting, throughout all my later teen years and when I first got into the business, I always had it on my mind that it would make a wonderful grounds for a pop song if done in the right way. At some point, finally, I just decided to write the song; it was time to put it together. It's in a different groove and it's a different time signature than the original piece; it was put into a form that could work for a Pop record at that time
