One thing.... Do you know anything about Les Paul? And his guitar?

How many audio speakers do you need to cut your own hair, well? How many watts? I just hooked up another 4 speakers, and another few watts. Surely, this will help me to ALMOST cut my hair. What about you? So very tired of having the flu for Christmas.

When I finally get myself together... I am going to get down in that sunny southern weather.

And, truly, I am conflicted. The only thing which seems to help me feel halfway sane is....ThaiVisa. Truly, this is true. Thank you, Thai Visa!

Yes, this is a good solution for just trimming one's hair. However, honestly speaking, perhaps we go to the barber shop for more than a hair cut. Maybe, simple things, such as talk, or just interaction with people who hang out at the barber shop. These are the things which can not be duplicated, just by buying a machine made by Phillips, in my thinking.

Still, I must say this: I so much miss the feeling of my female barber's soft touch on my neck, as she cuts my hair. I really do miss women, so much, in so many small ways, since this terrible thing has hit us. Also, women, and interacting with them, is what I have missed most, during these past two years.

Excuse me, but.... Has anyone here taken the time to evaluate the positive effects of grease and corruption? REALLY: This is not a joke. Corruption, throughout history, has benefitted societies in many ways. Not joking, really. But, you need to research this for yourself. Tks.

Let your Freak Flag Fly, anyway you see it. And, do not let your barber toy with your hair. This way, you need only look in your mirror, and do it your way. However, if you look in your mirror, and if you see a police car, then, stop your cutting of your hair, and head to the nearest barber shop.

Must be because... I had the flu for Christmas.

My Dear Friends, I must admit, at the beginning of our viral turmoil, I was worried about my hair, and having it cut. Yet, now, I realized that I can cut it myself, and it looks, still, OK. You know, after almost two years of self-cutting, and not self-harming, I realize that I never needed to visit the barber as often as I did. Probably, there are very many other things that we will be able to do without, for our own good. This, for me, has been just one more silver lining in our two-year cloud that has happened our way. In fact, I might need only one haircut per year, in the future, and still not feel deprived. I now know that this is true. Hallelujah..,..!

Simple as Pie....I CAN!

Hopefully, this post will continue for at least the next two years. It's a keeper.

What is the point? Just beauty in the music, and nothing more. Some people just beat on their logs, and call it music, also.

As we all know, Andre Previn had always tried to push the boundaries in order to explore taking music from one culture into another culture. He is to be commended for this, I think.

Everybody here respects a man with a decent Classical Education. At least, I do.

Wow, Man! Very NICE to see you posting here, after so many days of not seeing your postings, my friend. I always look for your comments, for sure. Seldom find them, though, in recent months. As everyone knows, some posters are better than others. Sorry. But your posts are, just, better. You are like the Ravi Shankar of TV, in my opinion. Hope all is good with you, and yours.

BY THE WAY..... I just really hope that some of you might listen to ... RAVI SHANKAR ANDRE PREVIN Some of the best from East and West.... Why? Because, I think that this is beautiful music, and is a product of East and West. I am not trying to "promote" it. Just hoping that others will enjoy it. Maybe you might find this music exactly as uplifting as I did, almost 50 years ago. Take care, my friends.

Thank you for your recommendation. In truth, the reason I am used to writing longer Topic Titles is simply due to having read so many academic Thesis Topics. Still, your suggestion is well noted, and I will attempt to abbreviate title length, in the future. Thank you.

OK.... NOW, I will provide you with an amazing listening experience, one which few people your age might even know about: This has not been available on YouTube, for years, and is still not fully available. I am not sure you might know, but Andre Previn was an amazing director, and one who loved to try new things. And, also, Ravi Shankar was an amazing musician. So, anyway, one of the best Mind Melds between East and West, in my humble opinion, culminated in this very interesting London Symphony Orchestral rendition. Enjoy if you will, this very truncated version of the original performance. The orgiinal full length version is not easily available on YouTube, so much the pity. Probably most London Cab Drivers will appreciate my thinking, as must be obvious. London Cab Drivers are Liberals, and open to new experiences, in my opinion. Take Care, My Friends.... It Ups To You!

Also, just in order to prepare the Newbies from the West, how to settle down here, and feel content during the remainder of their days: I would say that you must do your best to engross yourselves in your new culture, and engage the locals, and encourage them to accept you, just as you must also accept them. I have spent most of my life in Asia, and I like it, with no regrets, so far. Maybe, SOMEDAY, I will wake up, and find that I have mispent my life, but I doubt it. ASIA has been so amazing to me, for years and years. I have NO regrets. From 1971 to 2022....so far....I have no regrets about spending my time in Asia. Maybe, other than planet Earth, I should have spent my days on planet Neptune, or planet Saturn, with Vonnegut.

The thing about London Hackney Drivers is that.... They REALLY know how to talk to people, and make all of us feel fine. Such a good gift.

In my considered opinion, and in my wisdom after seven decades on Planet Earth: London Cab Drivers are: a. Helpful b. Intuitive c. Empathetic, regarding their fares d. Intelligent, to the max e. Humorous in the best respect f. Fine fellows, well met, in every way g. And, so much more.... This is why, I know that London Cab Drivers will find utmost happiness and pleasure if they were to just board a plane and come here to Thailand, when they choose to retire. I know this to be true. London Cab Drivers, those of yore, are amazingly wonderful people. Everybody must agree.

One Additional Thingie that I wish to mention here, since I mentioned this thingie above, and wish to extrapolate on this important thingie: aa. About 50 years ago, I had my first opportunity to ride in a true London Hackney Machine, driven by a wonderful person. bb. Even today, after 50 years, for sure, I still recall this GREAT EXPERIENCE! cc. London Hackney drivers are professionals, and they are SMART. dd. What I do know is that the London Cab Drivers, of yore, were both amazingly smart, and helpful, not to mention men of good repute, in every way. ee. Maybe these days are already days never to be repeated; these days when you could board a cab and be treated to such a wonderful experience. ff. Maybe, those days have gone the same way as the Beatles, for example. gg. So, anyway, I just wish that we could relive the days during which we could enjoy a politer society, and a society in which most of us respected those who actually read BOOKS, rather than wasting our time reading Twits posting on Twitter.

Speaking of Loose Shoes......Love it!
