Hot Summer Reading

July 12, 2012 . 9 am. Just reading an amazing, powerful, series of articles in the NY Times on new cancer therapies; genome sequencing and finding drivers of cancer cells (re)production. Heavy articles but so important to read.
Meantime I'm performing a lot and enjoying the rehearsals as well. Trying to stay out of the incredible heat here. Now that the Beethoven Symphonies are performed we are doing a lot of summer Jazz etc. in the parks, pool, clubs etc. It's all fun. I lowered the bass strings and am turning up the amp. : ) Will get back to MSKCC for checkups in the late summer or early fall. Dealing now with problem which appears to be an infection (taking Cipro) but we'll see in a few days if it works. May need more therapy than that.
Meantime the Grands were here and we got to the beach, the pool, the concerts at MapleWoodstock and the fireworks. Good time. They'll be off to summer camp soon. Carol and I enjoyed a wonderful day up in the lakes country with Army buddies. Fine.

Keep cool. JIM
