Sorry Cindy about Kind Of Blue, blame Miles Davis for that one, though he is long gone now.

"If you go without playing the trumpet for one day, no one knows, two days, only you know, and more than three days without practicing, girl you better look out, because everyone will know!" Today, I find myself constantly saying those words, just to get myself going, to not give up, and it works. Since I learned to play the trumpet at the tender age of 10, I have spent so much passion and much diligence with that instrument that I will not give up on it. Sometimes my instrument puts me into awkward situations where I feel like they won't ever end, but the trumpet gives me a lot of hope with the majestic, crystal-clear sound it brings to my ears.

O.K. I've downloaded it and have it saved as both a word and rtf file. I'll re-request the book and will proof it, but I want to finish at least Kind of Blue and maybe do Beasst int eh Garden first--though I can work on copyediting first if necessary.

Kind of blueis hell. I've never seen a book so badly paginated. The can is fine, but the book itself is terribly arranged, and it's taken me quite a while to figure out how to get the various texts on various pages to read consecutively and where to stick photo pages and their text so phtocopied pages also read conxeccutively. I'm on a roll now, I think, though.

I wonder if Cindy wants to try to open it
and see if her Mac can handle it better?

Hi Jamie,

My laptop couldn't handle the file either, even without
the Mountain Dew.  Sorry.
