HAPPY "D'OH!" DAY!
I managed to get through the day without being April fooled. But such has not always been the case.
Two years ago, allaboutjazz.com published this article.
In my defense, I was not the only person taken by this article. I only found out it was phony last summer, when somebody on a newsgroup recommended that I look at it again, "very closely."
It is VERY well done. The year after that, they did the "Paul Desmond Vocal Album." Yeah, I know, you have no idea why that's funny. Just trust me, it is.
This year, they announced the sale of "All About Jazz" to Smuckers, with a name change to "All About Jams."

Does anybody have a khaki colored trenchcoat or raincoat I can borrow? Swear to God. I need it quickly. Let me know.
------
If you are accustomed to reaching me at ttuerff@qwest.net, that address has changed to the more simple ttuerff@q.com. Please make a note!
------
Oh yeah -- I am once again gainfully employed. Life goes on.

If commercials are going to continue to use really good songs, then they need to start identifying the songs on the commercial. Your king has spoken. Make it so.

I'm part of a new division of an internet link company that writes and designs "landing pages," if you know what that means. I didn't but now I do. They wanted somebody with a marketing background who didn't speak computer, and boy was I the right guy for that.
I have a tan duster that's probably too small for you. Also a black trenchcoat that's a bit big on me and you might be able to wear if you're not too concerned with buttoning it.
