I have neglected to "blog" on several days over the past few weeks, and the lack of outcry has been striking. But I might owe you an explanation. Having acquired BIRDSONG BY THE SEASONS: A YEAR OF LISTENING TO BIRDS by Donald Kroodsma and THE SAMMY DAVIS JR. READER, edited by Gerald Early, I find that all other books - indeed all human activities and endeavors - suffer in comparison. No more "internet" or "meals" for me! The former volume comes with two CDs - 126 tracks! - and I wish the latter did as well. Just to show you there are no hard feelings I searched for a long time and found Sammy Davis Jr. taking a picture of himself and Jerry Lewis in a mirror.
