Exactly! I have picked up the guitar again since joining the MLT Club. It is definitely due the Mona Lisa influence…especially when Lisa plays her Fender Telecaster.

Oh my Lord, you have gone through a terrible two-week period, Jeannette. Please accept my deepest sympathies.
The power of music definitely can help us through some difficult times. Keep on listening.

Jung, your art with the fountain pen is awesome, as always. Just like the “Studio Scribbles”, it personalizes the lyrics!
My MLT joy so for in 2023 is the “Duo Session” for “Look What They’ve Done to My Song, Ma”. “Duo Sessions” are my favorite whether it is an original or a tribute to another artist. It is the best way to enjoy and to appreciate MLTs musicianship. Also, the use of the Journey travel guitars was a very unique touch. They sounded great in conjunction with the Vox amps!

I have a Minstrel 12-string, which was purchased in 1990. I believe that Minstrel is part of the Segull family, at least at the time. Hand-made in Quebec as well, it has a really nice sound. Have to get it out!

Two plain donuts with a coffee with triple cream (I like a little coffee with my cream, lol).
You never know…maybe I can meet Justin Trudeau and Rosemary Barton as well!

Tim Hortons! We have five of them in Lockport, NY. Told ya that I live close to the border!
The only issue is, too many students report late to school with their Timbits, lol.

The overall end-result is super, but it is how one gets there that makes it an accomplishment.
It is a big reason why the Studio Scribbles are so cool, they are a snapshot of the process. Same with the Behind the Scenes, they show the evolution of the final product. And don’t get me started about the Duo Sessions…all the preparation that goes into Mona’s and Lisa’s instrumental prowess always is evident.
Students are losing their critical thinking skills due to the advancement of technology. It gets frustrating, but we are doing our best in trying to make them think; and hopefully to research properly. Sometimes, I do not mind the ease in which they can find stuff…but know why, question why. Do not do things by rote.
Just as a side note…Lady Jane Beagle’s surgery went well. The doctor was able to utilize a local, and was able to remove the entire growth. Will have to wait for pathology, of course. Lady is a little sore, but she is being pampered, which she loves!

David, thank you very much. We are hoping for the best. She is such a great dog.
-
Much thanks, Jung. Lady is in good shape considering her elder dog status and we are hoping for the best. The well wishes that I have received here mean so much.
-
That’s why I have never scolded her, lol!

I’m not crying, you’re crying…
Thank you Jung and Jeannette for (posting and reacting) the video of the young lady singing to her two pets. Lady Jane Beagle has to go for surgery on Monday. There is a suspicious lump growing on her left shoulder. She is fifteen, so I am worried. Best dog ever.
Last day of exam week at school and a there’s curriculum meeting in a few minutes. I know that I am going to be thinking about that young lady playing and singing to her dog. But that’s okay.

My Mom, who was a Home Economics teacher, once made for me hundreds of baseball score sheets since I enjoyed keeping score when I watched ballgames. Thank you Mom!
