No way.<BR/><BR/>Surely you're not suggesting that anyone who ever says they're leaving this blog (including me who has said it and done it for long periods of time) is all that one person, right?<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I think some of you are such brainless twits and I'm going to have to award the poster of that long list as the biggest twit of the day.<BR/><BR/>No, I'm not somebody from another blog or someone who uses other names. I don't work for the government or city hall.<BR/><BR/>I don't hate Mexicans. I liked Zuma.<BR/><BR/>I don't care if Mayor Sam posts an occasional post that appears to be pushing his friends' wife's career.<BR/><BR/>I feel sorry for the person who just learned the word vitriol. Now they need to know how to use vitriolic in a sentence, then they can move on to vituperate, although that may have been used here once about Zuma or the mayor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-16611161001917022682008-03-06T14:05:00.000-08:002008-03-06T14:05:00.000-08:00Why don't you do a poll, Michael?

I don't know whose comments about what didn't get posted but after I get done with this comment I'll check the que for you.<BR/><BR/>Now what misconceptions do I need to dispel?<BR/><BR/>First off the film was also made by McIntyre not just his wife. Really, with all due respect to Penny Peyser, this was Doug's dream project, he's been a huge fan of Jack for years. <BR/><BR/>Next off if you were not sitting around with your head up your ass waiting for Hillary Clinton to win since your beloved John Edwards did not, you would know that Jack Sheldon is a MAJOR part of the LA jazz scene and that's he lived here most of his life. <BR/><BR/>Jack Sheldon of course was also the voice of "Bill" in the animated civics lesson of the 70s "I'm Just A Bill." (As well as Conjunction Junction and others).<BR/><BR/>By the way, did you know Mayor Villaraigosa has a very BRIEF appearance in the film?<BR/><BR/>Also, Doug is not a "friend" of mine. I appeared on his show once (if he was a friend he'd have me on more often right? LOL) and I've met him a couple times. If you want to buy his DVD, go to a screening of the film or borrow it from the library when they have it, great. If not, your choice too. We often promote films, musical performances, books, etc. here when we find ones that we enjoy.<BR/><BR/>And when did I say I can't take criticism? This is one of the few blogs where you can bash away on the bloggers as much as you want. I even admonished other writers at this blog for deleting critical posts. Its your forum to make yourself look stupid; I would never want to take that away from you.Mayor Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16280670018437708708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-10560345499184338912008-03-06T10:06:00.000-08:002008-03-06T10:06:00.000-08:00The history of jazz in Los Angeles is an interesti...The history of jazz in Los Angeles is an interesting story.

You people who work in government are really sick.<BR/><BR/>Don Q. Jack Sheldon is definitely a legend and he's still playing regularly now.

The band had some of the greatest LA musicians like Sheldon, Snooky Young, Frank Rosselino,.<BR/>Most of these guys and many of the great LA jazz musicians came out of the Stan Kenton Orchestra who was a great innovator in the genre of jazz and especially the so called "West Coast Jazz Scene" <BR/>Gerry Mulligan, Stan Getz, Art Pepper, Maynard Fergusson, Shelly Manne,.<BR/>LA has been blessed with some great musicians and Jack Sheldon was right there in the forefront, I am looking forward to seeing the DVD.<BR/>Thanksdon quixotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07482906521627114480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-81650824721298580972008-03-06T07:21:00.000-08:002008-03-06T07:21:00.000-08:00Only two posts on this entry 12 hours later.It's t...Only two posts on this entry 12 hours later.<BR/><BR/>It's true.
