Magnus,

What about Basie, Ellington, Sarah Vaughn, Satchmo, Scott Joplin etc etc. Have a soul, man.


Hey, I do have a soul and I intend to keep it in at least 80% clean condition! This means avoiding all Jazz, just to be safe. I don't mind if other people want to risk it, it just means I'll have a bit more space to stretch out on my cloud when the time comes :lol:

A senior adviser to The Pope has advocated a new list of seven deadly sins:


1. Genetic modification
2. Carrying out experiments on humans
3. Polluting the environment
4. Causing social injustice
5. Causing poverty
6. Becoming obscenely wealthy
7. Taking drugs.


Number 6 is a good one 8) ....... but I wonder how the Vatican itself will get out of that one :roll:



Easy - they cannot 'become' wealthy as they already are - past tense - problem solved :wink: :wink:
