[9] i’m actually on my way out the door! i have a jazz trio gig tonight. our bass player can’t make it, so we have a B3 guy filling tonight and tuesday night. he’s awesome, so i’m pretty psyched! i’m bringing him a Big John Patton cd to check out!!! is it easier to find some of his BN releases in the far east? hard to come by ’round these parts…

yeah man, the economy is great for a home right now. i hope to get an excellent interest rate! yup, not only am i staying in dixie, but i hope to find a place right here in my neighborhood. it’s one of the best areas in all of atlanta. hopefully this works out!

time to swing!!!

[2] yeah man, Todd’s posts are an important part of my day! i know there are holidays coming up quick, but i hope he finds some time to share a great story with us! i’m not a great reader and i love the fact that Shadow Games posts aren’t very lengthy…

[0] “I’m just between lives right now,” <— holy shit, that’s a heavy quote!

it’s weird timing for me on this story. about a week or two ago, i made an “executive decision” and i think i’m gonna go buy me a house! it’s time…

Acts of kindness are truly commendable, but some kind of safety net for those who are down on their luck (be it through public or private auspices) wouldn’t be a terrible thing, especially in times like these.

I’m not inclined to make a judgment either way right now, but it’s tough not to think of the money involved in those contracts after reading this.

It’s bad to know we’ll be seeing more and more people like Robbie soon enough. I’m worried, too. Hang in there, everybody…

[1] I agree with everything you have there.

I find myself looking forward to these stories. Keep them coming.

That could be me if I missed just a couple of paychecks. It is interesting how baseball – especially in New York – touches so many people. I love how baseball is on the backpage of the paper even in the middle of football season. I hope Robbie runs into you again Todd – you are a good person. Hopefully 2009 will be a better year for all of us – and the Yankees too.
