I liked Chris Cross but in the late '70's got interested in chamber music, which were the only concerts (along with operas) that I attended. The last popular music concert I went to was a band called Curved Air in the early 70's.<br />1. I like oct because the weather will be cooler and less oppressive.<br />2. Chivalry is not dead it has been for the most part dismissed. I am old school and when I open a door for a female only mature women appreciate it. I open the car door for my BW and some women see that and think I'm terrific (I'm not, just well bred)some women look at me like I have the audacity to think they are crippled. Go figure. If I were female I think I would like the special treatment. Go figure.<br />3. They all ok, not a big comic strip fan.<br />4. Used to be a grain mixer, strived for and achieved the most production 99% of the time. When a group is telling jokes I try to get the most and funniest jokes told.<br />5. I still think it is big. Try driving from New Orleans to New York. It seemingly takes forever, and not just because I get a speeding ticket in each state which slows me down.<br />7. I think St Patrick's cathedral is quite beautiful as well as the buildings surrounding Jackson square in New Orleans.<br /><br />So happy to be able to read your posts, please take care, you and your family.anthony stemkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15666462157746049139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-41543829556080094482012-10-03T21:52:47.439-04:002012-10-03T21:52:47.439-04:00Glad I finally played along...I've had fun and...Glad I finally played along...I've had fun and hope to join in next week as well!

I have always loved his music. What a great show that will be for you I am sure.<br />I think you are right about Southern Gentlemen, it is definitely in their nature to be chivalry. While I am proud of the fact that I can do things on my own, I love when a man opens a door for me or helps me with those heavy items.
