NOBODY ASKED ME BUT.....
1) Those who read this piece each week are worthy of the windfall you will receive in hard cash---see the very last item for collecting said amount from my compatriots in Nigeria.
2) I suppose if a victim of a devastating earthquake was from some cold climate and ended up in Florida (thanks to the USMC) he/she would be happy---from Haiti ---who knows. Especially when they now want to deport same for a lack of Visa---they should have used Mastercard. Priceless.
3) Do we need all the instant communication—except in emergencies? Think of these few things---courtesy at a dinner with others, texting and danger, instant gratification and mental illness, and the list goes on to include such things as appreciation of meaningful conversation and interaction on a personal level.
4) “Homicide—Life On The Streets” still ranks as a non-formulaic and intelligent program after all these years. Thank heavens for some networks to believe in it---well, one,--Centric (OK, they get bucks for it—others could have)
5) You have to wonder why writers to Letters to the Ed. in the NY Times give a hoot about the comings and goings of Sandra Bullock’s marital issues. For that matter, why would a highly paid (I leave respected to you) columnist for the same paper devote a column to this in a metaphorical way. Now, let me tell you about some neighbors---bet you do not give a damn. Rightfully so.
6) Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) does seem serious when thinks of Guam tipping and sinking with the influx of Marines. This man surely knows geology and all other such scientific insights---many is the island that has tipped over and just sunk when there was an influx of tourists---Capistrano has just been lucky all these years. Let us never forget the close calls at Liberty Island---and who knows why Manhattan Island still exists ===were it not for the overinflated prices that keep buoying it up. Must be a flotation device.
7) I surely do hope that you tune in to SUNDAY SIMCHA on WFDU on most Sundays but especially on April 4 when we have an extended Comedy Corner featuring The Capitol Steps in their quarterly special exclusively on this program--- you can listen on the web at www.wfdu.fm
8) TRADITIONS, also at www.wfdu.fm , will, on April 4 have a few wonderful guests---in no particular order and not as a unit—David Bernz (Work O The Weavers), Rob Tepper(aka Woody Guthrie), Pat Wictor, Abbie Gardner.
9) Does anyone recall what happened when Bflat, Dflat, and Eflat, walked into a bar?
10) The times have changed when you can share a movie (DVD) with grandkids and you worried about some of the language and their mom says not to worry---they hear worse. Realism in film is, I suppose, good---whatever happened to the fluttering curtains and the camera panning during a sex scene in that long gone stone age of cinema?
THE ANSWER TO QUESTION 1 IS "SUCKER"--You know how to get a computer virus---lucky you!! Or--worse--fall for something. I do have the rights to the Bklyn Bridge--- Please do contact me through my Nigerian compatriots for a great deal.

Well, this week more than usual you struck a chord with me. As to instant communication,you nailed it, it is so bizarre and seems to be a needy behavior! And, sorry for Sandra, she seems like a nice woman but heck, she picked a jerk, not so unique! So tell us what happened to the described in #9, can't leave us hanging!? Once in a while you are too obtuse for me, i.e. #2. Incidentally, UP is a great DVD to rent with the grandkids.

Sure---#2---Haitian was rescued by one US Agency and evacuated to US then arrested because the INS said he was illegal.
#9 The bartender says he does not serve minors---Bflat leaves. The other 2 now have a Fifth between them
