Juggling is going well! Mastered clawing and am working over my head, and club catching is working too!

You used to barely juggle and now you juggle bare. Interesting, does that help your juggling or just feels good?

Can't laugh now. George Duke has passed away.
And when you look him up on Google news, you get that William and Kate kid called George and who's a duke.

My son competed in drum corps international open class. They came in 2nd place but won percussion for their 5th year in a row! They were undefeated
all season. Then lost to their arch rivals from Santa Clara. Hearing about George Duke just made it worse!
On a positive note though both Concord and Santa Clara moved up in World Class. I am awaiting their final scores. They compete again tomorrow in
Indianapolis to see if they can make the top 12 in world class. (if they do then they compete Saturday against the big boys of world class)

Bonny, a sane voice in the zappa.com wilderness.
Hey Huck - all that percussion activity in the US. If we had something similar here I might not find it so hard to find a drummer that enjoys a
challenge. It gets depressing sometimes writing all this music that may never end up getting a decent live airing. I've had a bit of a burst and come
up with three new compositions recently. I get excited about it for a while but the lack of a band to play them wears me down. I guess I could do
multi track builds but I just don't have enough spare time for that lately. At least my guitar chops keep on improving.

Zen is very Zappa.
Yesterday I got bombed. While I was juggling a pigeon dropped an egg that missed me by a hair.

Sadly, my great aunt passed away last night, aged 94. She will be sorely missed.

They have it in Europe, Japan, Indonesia, and it's growing in other places because drum corps go and teach there. It is growing again here in the US
in the way of High School bands. My son is off to go teach a new one at a high school nearby today.
think I will have to suggest they go teach down under too.

In case he doesn't come back in a while, Huck has a son, Connor, and a daughter whose name I can't recall right now, sorry.
We went to the funeral today. Her closest relatives opted for a simple service with little but music, mainly Mozart. Afterwards the entire group went
for coffee and lunch at a restaurant near the beach.
Afterwards, Dad, sis and I went to the beach. It was a nice, sunny day and I got my feet wet.
I miss aunt Fides.

Sorry to hear of your loss Bonny.
I am dreading that I may have to move. The landlord no longer has any attachment to the house, he is recovering fromm chemo and throat cancer. I have
to find out how much he wants for the house - or is willing to accept as a down-payment. I want to stay here, but may not have any choice, since I
don't have the cash to purchase the property I live in. It's a sad day for me.

Sorry to hear that, Punky... hope you can set up a deal with the landlord. And I hope he recovers well.

Thanks Aqua...
I'd love to go parachute jumping sometime. As anyone who knows me at funfairs, I'm a bit of a thrill seeker. Even went in the Booster a day after that
horrible accident in France.
Past two days have been quiet, since I'm still puffed from The Hague. Early rise and long walk on shoes that aren't made for that, is a bit much.
