Dear Diary
Friday, November 5, 2010 at 05:27PM I am learning my way through "squarespace.com", more or less designing my own website. Although I would rather be out playing in the leaves, throwing a stick with my dog, making popcorn or talking on a telephone that weighs eight pounds and has a squiggly cord attached to the handset, I am sitting in front of the computer for hours and hours, rubbing my right shoulder blade and blinking my eyes from time to time.
"Annie, it's not 1985."
"But...but..."
"Annie, you're a big girl now and it's a different world where you have to tweet and you're not really friends with someone until you've accepted them on facebook.
"But...but...can we (WE ...this is me and myslef talking) go live on a commune and grow vegetables?"
"That's not realistic. Stay with the times or you will be like your grandmother Meme who never learned to operate a microwave or open a bottle of Aspirin"
Meme knew what was REALLY important.
I want to change T.V. channels using a manual dial and I want my car to have one long seat all the way across the front and the back.

I hope somehow I'm able to reach you this way. On your website there's no "contact" or way to reach you, so I'm trying this. I am Chairman/producer of a weekend of Jazz in Pinehurst, N. Carolina. I would like to talk to you about a possible appearance at our "Heart 'n Soul of Jazz" weekend in 2012. I saw you on youtube with the Hot Club of Nashville and the Gerald Clayton Trio. I was blown away by Pat Berguson's harmonica playing also. What a great bunch. So, please get in touch, by my email above or 910-295-3035. Jan Schnell. Lookiing forward to talking to you and the group. Thanks, Jan Schnell
