Congratulations! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:43, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, Gerda, for the kind words and stopping by! Love the flowers. Picture you chose for Pollini in your story actually looks quite similar to some of Skir's self-portraits !

It's not a particularly interesting book (as I said before it's written quite poorly), but I think it's quite emblematic of all sorts of things of the 60's gay and beat movements, when Skir was writing. One wouldn't be surprised at his fairly close friendship (well, as close as Skir's friendships go) with Allen Ginsberg after reading our article on the book ;). Always good to hear from you and read the links you provide Urve (talk) 01:53, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

relief: the last of six RD articles in one week is now on the Main page - yesterday I went to a great recital with many anti-war songs by Jewish composers whose music was banned by the Nazis. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:02, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

today a sad task - memory of Andrew Davis - turned into entertainment (yt at the bottom of his article, actually both) -- the latest pictures capture extreme weather --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:48, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Today's story mentions a concert I loved to hear (DYK) and a piece I loved to sing in choir, 150 years old (OTD). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:06, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
