Don will be here soon, I'm sure.

You can post and let him know he's been missed!

Sorry I missed the show on Sunday. George and I went out with my Sis and BIL to the local casino for their Easter Buffet. Oh, yeah, I used to be Frybabe - took the opportunity to divest myself of the old name since I don't work at Fry Comm anymore.

This deserves a Fanfare:

Wonderful, we really are back!
Don will be thrilled.  He doesn't know the good news yet: he is in rehab for the next 2/3 hours.

I love that emoticon with the hat!   

Don here are my congratulations for your 1500th program last week!         

We got some new Emoticons. I didn't notice. The grey head shrieking is missing, but we have a bunch of new ones. And there is me  only I wouldn't have called it idiot, I'd have called it screwball or nutcase.

I'm glad to see so many people back.

Wow, MarsGal, thank you for that piece about Yo Yo Ma.  He is one of my favorite musicians.  I did not know he had a sister.

Marking my spot.

Bubble, I LOVE that! 

Thanks.

Bubble, you're so clever!  Reminds me of Kilroy.

Mary Ann

Sure glad to see this discussion back up and on its way again.  Don, I listened to most of your program last Sunday and really enjoyed it.  Welcome back where you belong behind the microphone providing us great enjoyment. 

Thanks Mary Ann.  Who is Kilroy?

Hi Everyone
I did not go on Classical Corner much before, but dropping in today to say hello.

Nice to see many of our friends here.

Enjoy your day.

Kelly

Bubble,

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilroy_was_here    or google Kilroy or "Kilroy was here".

To most of us it became a popular thing during WW II.  I think reading the origin is more likely interesting than if we or someone were to tell you.  It's a fun thing.

I am here!! This is like a reunion of old friends and what a happy gathering it is.

Hi Don!!!!!

Thanks Rammel.  That was quite interesting.  I had no idea that little fellow had such a past.

Listening to more Ravel today. Daphne et Chloe first up.

Whenever I experience an occasion of great joy I am always reminded of this. Our reunion is such an occasion.

Alleluya!

Bubble, I think Kilroy was a WW II invention.  I don't think I can draw him here because I don't know how to accomplish it.  Anyway, you would have a straight line, then peeking over the line would be half a head with the two eyes showing and there would be two hands on the line and someone would write "Kilroy was here".  If I can find something online, I'll send it to you and you can take it from there - if you want to.  I am sure others in my age bracket know what I'm talking about.

Hi Don

Hope you are continuing to improve

Kelly

Kelly it's great to have you in our Classical Corner family

I am here, too.

Hello Sato, good to see you.
What are the news about Sachiko?  Unfortunately I didn't have her address anymore, to tell her we are back on the net.

Hi Radioman34
Thank you
