PRIZED POSSESSION
WELCOME BACK
Ten years ago, Saturday mornings in the old neighborhood,
there was always a 45-minute wait at Breakfast Spot #1
but you'd get a table right away at Breakfast Spot #2.
I'm pleased to report that nothing has changed.
And the Yukon Gold Home Fries are every
bit as yummy as you remember.

MASTER FLUGELHORNIST ACK VAN ROOYEN
If you're serious about the flugel, don't sleep on ACK VAN ROOYEN.
To my ears, now that AF and CT have passed, Ack may very well be
the greatest living practitioner of the Big Horn. Such subtlety,
style, soul and finesse. And what a gorgeous tone!
If I ever have occasion to return to Holland,
I'm definitely going to inquire about
getting a lesson from this
master musician.

Christmas List
Dear Santa,
As you know, Christmas Day is also my birthday.
This year, I've been a very good boy and a hard working dog.
Please bring me anything from this list:
- CD: Grand River Crossings by Geri Allen
- Book: The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
- DVD: Johnny Staccato
- Large black Rudy Vallee-style megaphone
- Autographed Nicholas Payton pocket square
- Medjool dates grown in Dateland AZ
- Custom personal cologne designed by David Carlos Valdez
- Working replica of the Mystic Seer
- Hat like the one Mark Gross wears on the cover of Blackside
- Property taxes windfall
- Chili and lime saladitos
Thank you!
Love,
Dmitri

Gastronomic Loyalty
Strong & Content
Henceforth I ask not good-fortune, I myself am good-fortune,
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms,
Strong and content I travel the open road.
—From Song of the Open Road by Walt Whitman
