Thanks guys!
Of course, I get paid by credit and copy. so... But it's publicity anyway, if the guy spells my name correctly.

I bought the double album of Jean Luc Ponty "Canteloupe Island" that has disc one of all Zappa stuff for one Dollar! The Zappa stuff seems to have
never been played while his stuff has small crackles in it. (very minor wear)

Ooh I'd love to hear that someday!
Today we went to the Hague again, main target of our visit was a rare documentary on Groenesteijn (a former children's home where the kids were
brutally treated), we walked a lot and tried to dodge some major event, a recording of a live musical performance based on the Passion. You know,
Easter's rolling up. Today's White Thursday in more ways than 1 since it snowed.
Also found a lovely CD-shop where I managed to score a copy of Ringu, a CD-box of Yma Sumac and something I've been looking for for 10 years: Peter
Maxwell Davies - Resurrection.

I bought that Cantaloupe Island double album back in the late seventies and my copy is still in pretty good nick. Recently I bought a double CD of
Ponty's King Kong and Electric Connection bundled together. That King Kong project with Ponty, and hearing what his music could sound like played with
musicians like that, must have added significant impetus to the break up of the early Mothers.

that King Kong is really great, I listen to it more than many zappa records. Z did the arrangements so it sounds like a zappa record as well as mostly
his songs... the revised music on there I often use as an intro for fz -- it's that good
and I found this today: one of those photo groups with a slider, comparing Paris today and 100 years ago. Neat!

Traditional Den Bosch pastry: the Bossche Bol. 12 cm diameter, filled with whipped cream, coated with pure chocolate. Impossible to eat without making
a mess.

I was woken up at 1:10AM this morning to find some psycho moron had set fire to our front fence. The flames were quite serious and were already
spreading to a tree inside the fence and via that it could easily have reached the house. Had my wife not been awake at the time it could easily have
been a much worse event, but it was bad enough. My entire family are quite traumatised today. The fire brigade took a long time to get here. Between
four of us hurling buckets of water and finally me with a decent hose supplied by a neighbour, we had the fire almost entirely extinguished by the
time the fire brigade arrived.
I was totally pumped on adrenaline, in pyjamas and bare feet which are quite sore today, but I could only think of putting the fire out at the time.

Thanks Bonny, we're all fine and home insurance will pay for a new fence. It was an incredible experience.

That'll get your heart pumping fast! I'm so glad no one was injured. Did the fire brigade say it was arson Poly? Unless you have overhead faulty
wiring or that's a lightning strike, it looks like an arson job for sure.
Got any mad neighbors or did you made some idiot mad perchance? That looks very suspicious bro'! I took fire science in college and the way that's
burning, looks like some kind of incendiary device was used.
Nice pix of Paris punk, I enjoyed the one from yesteryear coupled with the one from today. Things change yet stay the same.
Did you eat the that whole thing Bonny? It looks very rich and filling, I think I'd have a hard time swallowing all that before I felt too full.
