Sherlock
SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE is a shrewd writer. His creation of the clever and so witty Sherlock Holmes is a profound literary achievement. I like the odd and surreal prose of Conan Doyle. Indeed the characterizations of Sherlock Holmes and his cohort Watson are engaging and they bear the mark of remarkable genius.

Metro Atlanta...A Passionate Region
THE ATLANTA METRO AREA has in its possession a terrific amount of passion and resolve. The men and women of this area have gone through a lot of unusual variables in life and yet they still tread water remarkably. I feel proud that I am a man of this area. We have lots of history...Bessie Smith, Erskine Caldwell and Margaret Mitchell came from the Atlanta environs. When we study vivid Southern history, Atlanta and the state of Georgia stand out as very interesting places.

Bring Us Warm Stuff
COME ON SPRING! GET US SOME WARMTH! I am so ready for super warm spring temps. The thing that helps right now is listening to Mendelsohn, Mozart and Dizzy. I also read Lee Child and chic Elmore Leonard.
Sherlock Holmes
SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE certainly did a masterful job creating the shrewd character, Sherlock Holmes. The Brit influence and Sherlock have energized our wild culture so much. It is amusing reading 'Speckled Band' and other slick Arthur Conan Doyle stories. It is grand to have delicious cultural recipes consumed by our merry brains, Give a shout out for Sherlock Holmes and friends!

The Super Horace Silver
ELEGANT JAZZ PIANO MAN AND COMPOSER...What greatness is in the profound soul, Horace Silver. This gentleman produced outstanding, engaging compositions. His numbers 'Doodlin' and 'Senor Blues' are especially memorable. The sleek chording and resonant musicality of Horace Silver represent loads of huge fun for the avid jazz listener.
Pep Boys
HAPPY ME: I had a truly marvelous experience with my Pep Boys folks today. Outstanding vehicle service. Today is Great...a fine day in our culture.
Raymond Chandler
POWERFUL AUTHOR, THE FANTASTIC RAYMOND CHANDLER. I re-read the unique R. Chandler book, 'The High Window' late last night. Mr. Chandler is an amazing wordsmith. He is 'hip.' He puts together good mysteries or as latter-day pundits say "thrillers." I feel so good when I read Raymond Chandler. He creates great reading excitement.
The Exciting And So Passionate Joy of Stevie Wonder
STEVIE WONDER MUSIC filled my place with tremendous happiness and joy last night. I totally enjoyed watching the 'Stevie Wonder Tribute Special' on TV. The man is a gigantic genius and his music is so remarkable. Fantastic songs like 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' and the beautiful 'For Once In My Life' had me crying like a tiny baby. When Stevie's music kicks in Lord it makes me want to dance real quick. I hope all of you enjoy Stevie Wonder like I do.

'Fresh Off The Boat'
FINE COMIC SHOW! I love the new ABC show 'Fresh Off The Boat.' This production shows the modern Asians lives so well. It is a true revelation.
SNL Clever People
SNL LIVE NUMBER 40 was good last night. But as some friends said there were so many unique people that it was somewhat on the wild side as little Nelson Algren might say. I confess I liked the performances of the ebullient Martin Short and Mya Rudolph, though.
Another Way For Everyone To Access My Blog
I HAVE FOUND MANY OF YOU CANNOT ACCESS MY BLOG. I talked to my good friend who said just try the following address element:

I had a wonderful time at the wedding of our friends' daughter on Peachtree in Atlanta, late yesterday. The wedding was at The Wimbish House (the Atlanta Woman's Club locale). It is a marvelous and very beautiful place.

A Special Valentine's Day Blog From Me
HAPPY ST. VALENTINE'S DAY to all you people out there on this very special day. I am a romantic soul and yes I have always been that way. It is great to show our love and get deep into the vivid joy of a passionate and exceedingly romantic life. Let us enjoy each other and express our love to our special people. Listening to profound music like that of Mozart, Beethoven, John Coltrane or Miles Davis can inspire our inner beings so much. As I grow older I realize how joyful all the little moments and things of life's experiences can be. Watching superb films like 'Casablanca' and 'The Notebook' can be such exciting and terrific adventures for us, also. Let us all thoroughly enjoy this gorgeous St. Valentine's Day, this 24 hours of great meaning and expansive passionate memories for all of us men and women of the big, wide and wonderful world.
