  1. RIP Rickey Henderson at 65. All time base stealer whose record is likely bullet proof. He was a lot of fun to watch, even if he was on the A's.
  2. RIP Zakir Hussain way too young at 73. The tabla legend (and son of a legend) crossed so many musical boundaries and was amazing to see perform. He also seemed like a really nice man at SFJAZZ events. Our own prodigal member @neilvg did some work with him and but I don't know if he'll even get pinged from this reference. In any event, RIP to the legend. https://www.sfchronicle.com/entertainment/article/zakir-hussain-hindustani-scion-extended-reach-19982466.php
  3. That is really nuts! I got a tornado warning for SF on my phone early this morning, although it was actually a notice that there had been a tornado warning and it had passed. Not quite as helpful if it had been a real emergency.
  4. Luckily Todd is a tail end Boomer so you don't have to worry about that until next year, Knucks!
  5. Hope you get 60 DACs for your big day so you can DAC roll for years to come! Have a great one Todd! Cheers!
  6. Gobble Gobble. We're doing Thanksgiving tomorrow, which feels weird. Hope everyone else is already in a turkey triptophan coma.
  7. Have a great one bro! Cheers!
  8. I know you're having lots of fun and heading back to the states for more. Wish I were there to help celebrate the first 60! Cheers!
  9. I'm bad with numbers. Can you please explain?
  10. You know you can hire people to do that stuff every once in a while, Nate. Well done regardless of the easier alternative. 😎
  11. Have you run out of bottles that match your age or birth year? I guess it had to happen eventually...
  12. Happy birthday Mikey! Cheers!
  13. Pro4A seems spot on.
  14. Who can identify the cans in Quincy's home studio, circa 1974? Not I, by the way... RIP to the legend with a legendary name, Quincy Delight Jones, Jr.
  15. Could it have been the corgi?
  16. Sad. RIP Teri
  17. Gratefully? RIP Phil
  18. I cannot think of another Los Angeles Dodger whose death would move me at all, but this is sad. I had heard he was ill because he wasn't broadcasting during the playoffs and he was only 63, which feels very different as close in age as I am. Plus, my dad threw primarily screwballs. RIP Fernando
  19. Happy Birthday Marc! Cheers!
  20. Long walk indeed. Love 4AD records since the early 80s. The Record Exchange and Tower Records in my home town and Rasputin and Tower and others in nearby Berkeley had a steady supply of all the best stuff.
  21. I was unable to sleep at the same time this morning. Almost listened to this when I saw it pop up because I had an air pod in my ear.
  22. Party favor noise! Cheers
  23. Friday's Oktoberfest beer dinner. I'm still a bit full.
