Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Congrats to Corwood and Mrs. Industries. Welcome to little Geneva. Clearly Daddy's girl already.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Congrats to the Industries!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Felicitations!

Many thanks, y'all! I'm so tired that I can barely type! And everything I think is in exclamations!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's very exclamation worthy!

Congratulations! Wow, what a slippery little babe to throw herself into your arms.

I've got an Aunt Geneva and I'm glad to hear that name making it into the 21st century.

Yes, more exclamations all round!!!1! Hope you've all had some sleep in the meantime.

Congratulation to the Mr. & Mrs. Corwood and to Little Sphere, what great news!. How is the big brother doing?

...And, as a special present for Corwood, today's Guardian Film and Music section has a piece on Fairport's "Liege and Lief" and an interview with Anne Briggs.

I saw Richard Thompson play live at my town's annual (free) folk and world music festival last weekend. He was on great form.

Hey, I'm just doing a drive-by to say thanks for the kind words. I'm about to head back up to the hospital to see Mrs. Industries and Geneva. Abe had a lovely visit with Geneva last night. He was mostly ignoring her, but occasionally, he'd come over to let her grab his finger or to touch her face. When I dropped him off at daycare, he was telling his teacher this morning all about his sister ("Sister Geneva! Baby! Little! Warm and cozy!*"), which he followed up with a short interpretative happy dance.

* The "warm and cozy" line is from I'm A Big Brother Now, which we've been reading a few evenings every week for months now.

Sounds like he's on his way to being a very Emmett-like older brother.
