"... apparently he did not get tenure." Ya think? lol

"The postmodern re-engineering of left-wing political theory has included the redefinition of “privilege” in a way that is separate from economics, a definition of “sex” that is separate from biology, and a definition of “violence” that does not involve actual violence." Hand it to the Right for th...

I intend to make the best of it. Christmas day at my place = Christmas ham, pumpkin pie made from pumpkins we grew. what's this?...the Guinness fairy visited the fridge! Yes, things will be fine. God bless all here.

david johnson

Mail is still fine at my place. Sorry you are having problems. Move out here in the 'boonies' w/me and mine.

david johnson

The problem was the dems running Hil . . . . I was going for Bernie in '16. When the dems decided to shaft him I decided on a definite 'screw them' policy. I was not disappointed. You apparently switched from backing socialist Bernie in ‘16 to promoting post-fascist Donald because you were piqued b...

I certainly have not heard a piano version of these works as of yet. I do remember a version that used soprano sax rather than picc trumpet in #2. Was that a Casals recording?

david johnson

I'm sure that's true David, but far too many are. If you're not part of the solution , you're part of the problem ? The problem was the dems running Hil. The solution was voting for someone else. I was going for Bernie in '16. When the dems decided to shaft him I decided on a definite 'screw them' ...

The people I know who voted for Trump are not like that at all.

It appears the Council of High Moronics has met again and issued foolish statements regarding Ludwig

david johnson

Thanksgiving at our place was fine. I trust yours was the same.

david johnson

The article reveals its author, rather than the EC, to be the one who is stupid and immoral.

david johnson

Leave the EC alone!!

david johnson

I've enjoyed all of those

Among the things to learn: be aware of what you say, know that others will gladly redefine your comments.

david johnson

That was certainly interesting. My worst is that Biden wins, the progressives 'generate' his demise, Harris is prez, they succeed in getting Pelosi up to vp. Conspiracies are fun.

david johnson

Some of what Belle presents is correct. Wokeness, hipness, and Neo-Marxism is dangerous to our freedom and must be resisted.

david johnson

Talk radio seems to be 'pooled ignorance'. I'm moderate to slightly conservative and NEVER listen to it.

david johnson

Donald will get his, just as Hil got hers.

david johnson

NO International Intervention
I have no problem helping other nations if they ask for it, but they can stay out of here. We'll tend to our own messes.

david johnson

It is nice to receive your message. I am mostly exploring Bach cantatas in my current listening. I have visited some area historic cemeteries and landmarks and sounded Taps or Amazing Grace for those I knew who are there. Last week I videoed that at the local, tiny, African American cemetery. Most f...

What could possibly go wrong with a Putin vaccine? oh, yeah...that guy that who was poisoned recently! Get well. Anna

david johnson

May God bless her with quick healing.

david johnson

If he signed on as announcer rather than programmer he fouled up. 'Dead white men' is racist. MPR should have given him some programming leeway. Both sides messed it up.

david johnson

Thank you, guys.

Bach/Sacred Cantatas/Werner/SW German Chamber Orchestra - I picked up the Bach Sacred Cantata box (Erato) from Arkivmusic for $20.00 on sale. I had been considering this type of purchase, but was thinking of the more expensive versions. Since I had none of these works this seemed the way to go. The ...

david johnson

LOL...I take it that you all do not care for the current President.

david johnson

Wow...it'll take you 20 years to listen and review all that!

david johnson

I have seen that one several times. I used it in my jr high music classes.

david johnson

Thank you. I sense a set in my near future

david johnson

I'm hearing it now. I doubt I've heard it before. I am behind in my quartet explorations! Very enjoyable. Vlach Quartet/Naxos. You guys have any other recommendations for it?

david johnson

Keep the screen.

david johnson

maestrorob, that is the one. I enjoyed it very much.

david johnson

I am unfamiliar with her, so I am listening to her Sym. #1 in e minor - John Jeter/Fort Smith Symphony. I enjoy the tonal texture she creates.

david johnson

The conservative part of me has no relationship with fear! Neither does my liberal aspect.

david johnson

I always get a few - they used to be car warranty expiration, now they must be body part expiration (calls from odd sounding med groups). I get some that don't leave a message.

david johnson

I most always mute the ads, but will watch ones I find amusing.

david johnson

YAY!!!!

david johnson

Go to w-mart, go to the bars, go to Kroger, go to the beach...but don't you dare go to worship services. Makes no sense! My community is steaming church services. Also, my home church is open for Sunday AM with pews roped off, face masks, hand sanitizer, individual communion service, etc.

david johnson

I say Trump must stay … if the only alternative is a contemporary 'progressive'.

david johnson

I sampled that. Very well done

david johnson

Things are fine w/me. Musically, I am retraining my trumpet chops. I had to lay off playing while recovering from a bypass, and then I developed a tooth infection, which is bad for 'bypassers'. A tooth extraction put more delay in practice time. Yesterday I had a great day running through fundamenta...

Do not trust the Communist Chinese Govt. in this.

david johnson

I understand. Thank you, Lance.

david johnson

I haven't seen that Joan of Arc.

david johnson

I've seen that. Ever try "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari"?

david johnson

I got a private message notice here. When I checked, nothing was there. First time it has happened to me. Do any of you get there, too?

david johnson

Lance has given words of wisdom

While staying home, I have listened to several recordings of Ormandy/Philly from the 1950s. Very enjoyable playing.
