Snow . . .


. . . is formed when temperatures are low and there is moisture - in the form of tiny ice crystals - in the atmosphere. When these tiny ice crystals collide they stick together in clouds to become snowflakes. If enough ice crystals stick together, they'll become heavy enough to fall to the ground.

Songs . . .


(from Baltimore's Ty Ford)
". . .Tuesday March 28 will be a special night for me. It will be the first in what I hope may be a series of songwriter showcases I'm helping to set up at Germano's in Little Italy. . . Earlier this year in talking with Cyd Wolf, Germano's Executive Producer after the "Old Part of Town" show, I mentioned singer/songwriters. Cyd said she'd like a Tuesday night event. I came back with the idea of four singer/songwriters, each one telling the story of how a song came to be and then playing it. Maybe a little audience Q&A after each song. Two rounds, a short break and then two more rounds. Not an original format, but one that has worked in Nashville (among other places) for years. . . I chose Singer/Songwriters Ellis Woodward, John M. Seay, Sahffi Lynne and Gonzo Jazz pianist Ray Jozwiak for the first flight. All seasoned artists. All with long lists of original material. All of whom, in my opinion, are hard workers at their craft and deserving of recognition. Please join me and these four fine artists. . . Please take a moment to put us on your calendar. You can make reservations right online right now at the link below. . . Tuesday March 28. Germano's Cabaret doors open at 6:00pm. Come, enjoy the lovely menu. The music starts at 7:30pm. Germano's Cabaret only seats 80. If you haven't been to a show there, you've missed a truly fine venue for intimate performances. See you there for this special night. . . Please forward this post if you will. Oh, and if you have thoughts of who you’d like to hear at the next event, please let me know!
https://www.facebook.com/events/1758634277789502/. . ."


I'll be there.

Spot . . .


(https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/03/02/jeff-sessionss-denials-of-contact-with-russians-are-falling-apart-quickly/?utm_term=.b62aa3d9be78)
". . . Attorney General Jeff Sessions's spokeswoman released a statement . . . after The Washington Post reported Sessions had spoken twice with Russia's ambassador last year — contacts he failed to disclose in his confirmation hearings. . .“I never met with any Russian officials to discuss the issues of the campaign,” Sessions said. “I have no idea what this allegation is about. It is false.”. . .This is a remarkably misleading non-denial denial. Sessions, in the course of three sentences, manufactures a straw man, props him up and then knocks him down. He is denying a report that doesn't exist. . ."

Laugh. . .

. . . not much else we can do . . . (we certainly can't take these people seriously. . . )

Ahead . . .


You've always been ahead of me
One fact that I
In my infinite wisdom
Could not always see
But in the end you always convinced me
Things aren't always
What they appear
The things I've always looked for

Once long ago before we met
I thought I could
Single handedly make the
Spinning world go away
Just like some king
from back in those bygone days
But I was wrong
I don't belong
Inside this category

Seemed to be
At the time to me
To my advantage
Missing why
Not knowing
When to try
To start believing
In my very own
Self determination

Sometimes at night
When I'm alone
The solitude
And the quiet can bring out
All the worst in my head
But now it seems that isn't so big or bad
I've learned a thing

Or maybe two
And just ahead
There's
Always
You


Always You
