Chela, how do you like the Pimsler Portugese de Brazil? My husband is bi-lingual (he's an American, but his parents worked in Brazil until he was a junior in high school), and I've always wanted to learn a little Brazilian Portuguese.

either from Brazil or Portugal, and the other quarter being Spanish
from either Mexico or Spain. I speak and understand Spanish, mostly
understand it, used to interpret but now I just understand it, I'm
learning Brazilian Portuguese, because I know a little bit, but wanted
to learn more so I got Pimsler Portugese de Brazil for Christmas two
Christmases ago. Yeah, I'm pretty musical, studied jazz material
including reading books about the people who made this exquisitely
well done work of art of many colors since I was 12 and now I'm 23
have been playing the trumpet and singing since I was 10, just started
taking piano lessons mid-January.
Well that is enough long tones for now, G.C.
To everyone else, this'll be a running joke that will last long,
between Grandma Cindy and I. So GC, smile one of those big ones, Chela
PS. In addition to working painstakingly on Kind of Blue, I've been
workin' on an album, my first one, not released to the public at all,
but if interested, please email me at cdrobles693@xxxxxxxxx and I'll
give you all free MP3's of the music I've done, I've done three so
far, so I'd give you those ones, and as I get done with the others, I
keep you to my list of people to download these selections. It would
be great to have your names and emails so I can keep track of where to
send the music to via yousendit.com at no charge to you. I promise.
I'm doing some jazz standards as well.

obviously fits. Are you little and  blond?

Some people say my name means beer, others say it

one, and my mom says it means musical and the symbol

is the cello,

hence on how to pronounce my name Chela in Spanish,

Chela being the

musical definition really matches me, because I sing

tenor, play

piano, play trumpet, and music is part of me, who I

am, like all

trumpeters who take music seriously, that is my aim as

well, like

Miles, try to find my own style out of the ones

I've heard thus far.

pronounciation,



I deleted "email handles" from the

subject line but forgot to delete the

question. I meant to delete it because I

can't find the list I've been

keeping, but your cherryjam was on it. Also, if

I can remember them,

girlyscream, elfqueen, captaincynic,

youngbeautyqueen,

xoxswimchik,fuzzypurplecouch,greensleeves1,captainsly,wildcat,
coasterfreak, solsticesinger, ldspeaker,

I didn't remember but found another list;

I've been keeping a list of

people who want books and these are some of

their "handles." Creative

bunch, aren't they--and one does wonder

what the name says about the

person, why he/she picked it. Thanks for

explaining yours, Judy.

G.Cindy

P.S. Siobhan said her name was pronounces sha

vahn--soft a and accent on

the last syllable. I was way off.

How do you pronounce Siobhan because

I'm sure as heck

that I have
no idea what it should sound like! grin.

I do notice people's email names, and

I get asked about

my email
addy all the time.  smile.  I picked my

email address name

because I love anything made with

cherries, and because I

needed
something easy for my Dragon software to

recognize when I

speak
it.  smile.

Chela,

I'm curious. How do you pronounce

your name? If it

sounds like

Sheila to E, I'm mentally

mispronouncing it, as I

have

mentally mispronounce Siobhan all my

life when seeing

it in

fiction.

BTW, do any of you notice

people's email names?
