***
Composition of page 14 Sex and the Species + final parts-printing (which has been ongoing since July 21) for Opus 19 before heading out the door, first an unsuccessful bid to obtain keys from Doug,
then a more serendipitous
rendezvous re Owen,
before reproduction, so to speak, at Cybercopy, and away we go, on the hotter-than-that 134th day of summer -- up to an even, honest 100 (84th 80-or-more, 40th 90+, 7th at 100-or-beyond)...
Upon return, send out soundcheck schedule and finish program...
