A bit more... Even Jesus (I may forget it at times) said \'My God, My God, Why have you forsaken me?\' A mystery.

I can understand this gold. I fuss about \'outward\' things. Sometimes I decide on that, to go to church or not - too cold; too rainy; etc.
But it\'s more than that really. Then there\'s me about to write a poem on oils, healing, etc.
In one of the darkest Psalms (88) the Psalmist cries out to God. Hardly a glimmer of praise in it. It seems he is about to die too. Yet I read in a commentary that he still holds on to God.....somehow.

Play to-day, we each need
Cheated a little, but still fun.
I play such games in my head many many times.
There is a sentence in Hindi, to show the importance of punctuation, but it doesn\'t translate to English very well:
Crude attempt:
An enemy spy is trying to gain entrance to a fort to blow up the armory and presents a hand written note to the sentry, which says:
STOP DON\'T LET GO
He was allowed in because the sentry read it as,
STOP DON\'T, LET GO
Where as it was meant to read
STOP, DON\'T LET GO
you can guess the outcome.
I thought you all may like this levity as well

You lucky people.
Desifinado is a piece i learned long ago and remains a fav. I had only ever heard the studio version of the 45 record (B side jazz theme from Dr Kildare I also learned) until today. Stan was epitome of west coast cool sax and here on your vid to my ears he is over-playing barely retaining \'cool\'. It does however show his virtuosity.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Thnaks UNCLE ANDY ~ Love the MUSIC (new to me !) sounds very like a DIALING TONE when someone puts you on hold for 10 mins ~ usuually Scott Joplin & the Entertainer ~ which is equally annoying as people being LATE ! If you live in KENTUCKY (USA) there is an hour difference from one side of the Road to the other ~ so they have an excuse ! ONLY IN KENTUCKY !
I think it depends how you were brought up and what one was taught @ School ! My Parents & My Teachers told me that being late for an appointment was th height of BAD MANNERS ~ better to arrive Half an Hour early than Five Minutes LATE ! Being unpunctual is another one of the many negative TRAITS of the 21st C.
Thanks for SHARING & CARING !
Blessings & Love to BOTH of YOU

As a big fan of Weather Report I\'m pleased to see your music choice today. I have everything they ever published.
Punctuality is something i am a stickler for and i do not appreciate other peoples poor attitude in this respect.
I recall telling off a specialist nurse in Hospital for keeping me waiting 35minutes without explanation and assuming that i had nothing better to do. I insisted they make another appointment for me because i had another appointment to keep and had no intention of being late for it.
Had it not been for my 2nd appointment i would have sat it out quietly thinking that i could never behave in such a way without contacting the waiting person with an explanation.

A good write Gold. I suppose there is lonely in this. But it\'s also very annoying. We have taken the time to be \'on time\', only to have others bumbling about and being late.
Or they are there, but mess about in the background before calling you for your appointment.
Or worse, no-one telling you anything as to why there is a delay.
