Probably not for good. I don't have the willpower for that.

But there are some issues in my personal life that I need to evaluate. And they take precedence over this place.

I'll be reading, but not posting.

Bye

Well I hope you come back soon and participate. The MB is not the same without you. All the luck sorting out those issues in your life.

See you!

Ars superior est vita hominum.

"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-

I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

So long.
Do you like John Williams? His early work was a little too jazzy for my taste, but when Jaws came out in '75 I really think he came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and an air of consummate professionalism that really gives the pieces a big boost. He's been compared to Jerry Goldsmith but I think John has a far more leitmotif-driven style of composing. In '82 John composed this, E.T., his most accomplished album to date. I think his undisputed masterpiece is "The Magic of Halloween", a theme so catchy most people don't listen to what it means. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of childhood and the importance of friendship, it's also a personal statement about the man himself. Hey Paul!

I don't believe you for a second, Steef...I'll look forward to reading your latest post when I get up tomorrow!

...but on the off chance that these issues really are sufficiently serious to take you away from us for an extended period of time, I have two words for said issues...

If he's reading and not posting he's still sitting at the computer going thorough the forum and not thinking about said issues, whatever they are. So something smells fishy here.

I hope it all goes well Mr Cosman.

Has anyone checked the Horner Shrine, or are the Dutch withdrawing en masse from the Internet now?

By the way, I think Steef would be very disappointed in the positively heartwarming and supportive nature of many of the replies in this thread. Surely he deserves better than that.
