When you're extremely bored....

[Josh Levine]

I've been taking free online courses from Berkeley School of Music through Coursera to try to beat the boredom. Interesting stuff! Wish I spent more time doing that and less time doing what I am doing right now obsessively clicking websites.

Many years ago there was a brand of radios called XAM. They are collectible now I suppose. The radios were actually manufactured by others, but sold under the XAM brand.

The story of the brand name was that the original owner spelled the name of his cat backwards.

Interesting how these things come about. Too bad they're not better instruments...

Purely on the side: I spontaneously found myself singing your signature quote, which, as a Yes fan is very familiar to me, and which I actually thought was part of your comment for an instant... (I know nothing of Michael Kelly guitars)

NFI Just search for the classes you want. I am currently taking Music Business Foundations and Musicianship, Tensions, Harmonic Fucntion, etc from Berkeley. There are free options which I am doing and options to pay a little and get a certificate.

The library is still there. Just sayin'.

But I can’t go to the library when I’m on the toilet.
