I like your attitude and when I have a chance I'll tell you how
to get the nostrils working for the true velvet sound.

Thanks Dan. This sure clears things up for me and I understand
perfectly.
(even though my eyes have that puzzled look at the moment). I
truly will
get around to buying your book-I promise. I would, of course,
prefer an
autographed copy, but I'm wondering if you have marketed that
book to the
libraries yet? It would be nice for those of us with limited
budgets
(especially after making saxophone purchases) Perhaps we could
all put that
book on a request list at the library and drive up the demand for
copies of
it at each library-say maybe 20 copies or so at each one? It
would be sort
of like the Harry Potter craze, with people standing in line for
miles just
to get a copy of it. We could station food vendors along the
line and I
could be one of those. Then I could sell enough hot dogs to make
that
purchase. What do you say?
Well........... Maybe I'll simply give some saxophone
lessons. I'm just
not good with hot dogs but I am making chicken soup at the
moment.
