Another Standing Date

     I also have a fun standing date with my long-time friend Richard.  He helps me cover shows Carol isn’t available for.  He gives me rides, help tracking down set lists and erudite comments I can quote in my column.  He is particularly qualified, because his father was a jazz pianist.  Recently, we have seen Rickie Lee Jones, Chick Corea , and Poncho Sanchez. He also helps with things like changing the bulb on the porch light, since we had gotten behind on doing that.

     The present moment is cool.
