I've applied for membership before and I was hoping you could comment as to why I wasn't accepted the last time?
Don't worry, the device on my head in my photograph isn't some sort of government mind control device.
I don't really blog often (if this is a requirement) because I spend most of my time in the bipolar group.
If you could give me a heads up that would be helpful.
BTW, I was hoping to post that the jazz trio Medeski, Martin, and Wood are going to be performing at the Rio on 11/19/2008. If you're not familiar with them, I consider them to be single most important group in keeping jazz relevant today. Kind of Miles Davis and John Coltrane when they were heavy heroin users but with more discernible melody and rhythm. Basically the best live performance I've seen of any genre.
