Gov’r. Thomas was so pleas’d with the construction of this stove, as described in it, that he offered to give me a patent for the sole vending of them for a term of years; but I declin’d it from a principle which has ever weighed with me on such occasions, viz., That, as we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously.
— Benjamin Franklin, Autobiography, Chapter 10Categories

Cantatas, Sonatas and Moral Tales: Songs and Instrumental Music from 18th-century Germany
Last night I went to another concert in the Viols and Friends series. This one was of eighteenth century music, which we're on the whole more familiar with than we are the seventeenth century music that I heard last October. Although the performance included composers as familiar as Telemann and Handel, it was in general [...]
Start of the Winter Olympics
I spent last night watching the Olympics opening ceremony on NBC. Then I spent 15 minutes over coffee this morning reading what the New York Times had to say about the death of the Georgian luger and the opening ceremony. If I hadn't watched the show, I wouldn't have seen the music and the dancing, [...]
Chopin Concert
I gave the basic information about this Wednesday, but didn't include the program, or performer's bio. Here's what's on the flyer: Music of Fryderyk Chopin on the occasion of his 200th birthday born March 1, 1810, Żelazowa Wola, Poland died October 17, 1949, Paris, France Judith Conrad, Pianist Sunday, February 21, 2010, 3:00 PM First [...]
More fallout from the Coakley campaign
I had dinner with my friend from the suburbs. She was mad at Coakley for two major items: She was in Mexico for some of the campaign, and the robocalls ended up costing her $50. Coakley is apparently still convinced that the Fells Acre Day Care prosecution was justified.
Results from the January 30 concert
I thought I'd write a coherent account, instead of throwing you dribs and drabs like I did in December. The previously posted information is all in this post, except that I posted the picture later. It was one of the nicest spaces we've played in. We've played there twice before, but because it's an art [...]
How the Burns party went
I'm just now getting to hear the recordings from the concert on January 30, so I'll write about that later. Yesterday's Burns birthday party was quite pleasant. My sister, the hostess, read an article from the Manchester Guardian pointing out that the custom started within a few years of Burns' death, when there were still [...]
More Judith
I had to spend most of the morning producing the handout for the party, so I'll give you the rest of it today. I'm reading parts of two sections -- the one I gave you yesterday about Holofernes cutting off the water supply to Bethulia, and the one about the death of Holofernes. Here's the [...]

The Book of Judith
I'm going to a Robert Burns Birthday Party tomorrow, where people read poetry that's impressed them. We'll also song some Burns songs and read some of the standard Burns, but people mostly pick poems that mean something to them no matter who the poet is or when they were written. I thought over what poetry [...]
