Pictures I like

Works well, it seems. Flickr even gives you the image link embedded in BBCode so that it can be posted in forums. Once you are in the photo's page, click on the 'Arrow emerging from the rectangle' icon

Thanks for sharing the photos.

Ah.  I was using the wrong code.....

Bill, have you seen The Cheap Detective? . . .

Does this mean that only the expensive ones can stalk unnoticed?

Let's see if I can do this
 

Thanks Jeffrey for the pics & your link to the MANY photos you took @ the gardens - believe that I made a comment to your trip in another post (probably vacation thread) - been there several times when my in-laws lived in Delray - had some delightful lunches and should probably plan to return - Dave

Last Friday, violinist/composer/conductor David Fulmer gave a recital at the Austrian Cultural Forum on Mozart's violin - the first time the instrument has been in the United States - all arranged by the Mozarteum Foundation Salzburg. On the program were works by himself, Matthias Pintscher, and (of course) Mozart.

This is me (at right) with Fulmer holding the guest of honor.

Hi Bruce - hope that all is going well for you in the Big Apple!  Susan & I have been going annually in the fall to Montauk, LI to see her aging mother and the thought of re-visiting NYC always comes up, of course!

But, about Wolfie's violin, any special history (e.g. maker, other owners, etc.)?  Thanks - Dave

I heard about this on the radio. They made sure to be as inconspicuous as possible while transporting it, rather than put on a show of high security.

Well, come by any time! (And fully acknowledging the reality of many of us, with aging parents...)

I don't have the Mozarteum Foundation handout with me at the moment, but I believe there was a period of time in the mid-20th century when apparently the instrument was not tracked (a thought that slightly blows my mind, that such an instrument could be "lost"). The Foundation acquired it in the mid-1950s (IIRC) and makes a point to have people play it. I'll get more information later.

A few pics from Cracked.com's If Movie Characters' Timing Had Been Slightly Off, some of them weren't funny at all, but I did like these two.

What is that they are watching on TV?

[Dancing Divertimentian]

Hmm....I wonder how Sesame Street will feel about the inference, here.
