sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of

Do you deserve a nostalgic breather? Through the delicate workings of the music box, even the most dramatic compositions seem to play only for you. You’ll hear even a very familiar piece in a whole new way. Courtesy of home recording pioneer Ken Clinger, here’s today’s music box selection. It will sound surprisingly good even through built-in computer speakers, and it will cut through the ambient noise of the office without being distracting.
Featured in Today’s Music Box:
Piano Sonata #4 - movement #4 (Beethoven)
performed by Ken Clinger

One's life path is marked by crossroads and signposts. If you are confronted with making a choice today, perhaps the signpost displayed here will help to characterize your situation and guide you to make a decision. If you need more guidance, refresh this page for another symbol. If both signs are the same, perhaps any choice will lead to the same outcome.
The signs are inspired by a system of symbols entitled "Spiritual Diagnosis," developed by Dr. Robert McNary of Montana. Dr. McNary actually creates nine-faceted mandala charts for people and interprets the symbols with uncanny accuracy. Dr. McNary's web site is RockyMountainAstrologer.com.

Someone should write a guide to Jerry Lewis films that aren't Jerry Lewis vehicles.* *Inspired by Jonathan, who said, "We gave up on watching Don't Raise the Bridge, Lower the River. (Imagine my shock and outrage when this movie starring Jerry Lewis turned out to be nothing but a Jerry Lewis vehicle!)" [Jonathan later added, "Did you ever see the film version of Visit to a Small Planet? See, there's a movie starring Lewis that's not a Jerry Lewis vehicle. Even Jerry Lewis's performances in the film are not Jerryesque."] |
