friday october 25 2013 quincy jones i recently atteded a lecture by charles fox mr fox does backround music for feature films he talked of the intracacies of coordinating sound and mood with the action on the screen fox also composes serious music and popular songs such as killing me softly with you smile in the course of his presentation he mentioned his long association and friendship with quincy jones who did arranging for some of the leading lights of popular music such as frank sinatra my mind went back to my college days and meeting a quincy jones i wondered if it was the same one yesterday it was confirmed by my mailman it was about 1950 i was having a late lunch at the fraternity house at the university of washington sitting oposite a frat brother who had been a music major at garfield high school in seattle the mailman entered the front door to drop off mail for the residents the brother jumped up to greet him and invited him to join us for a cup of coffee the name quincy jones stuck in my mind he spoke of being a substitute mail deliverer to finance his further music study he was asingned to the u area for that date he said he preferred the residential areas especially the suburban tracts he said that there if an attractive housewife came out to get the mail he would tell her that if she would put on a pot of coffee he would speed up his deliveries and and be back to share a cup with her he said he was having surprising success with this ploy i asked my mailman yesterday if he might know if it was the well known quincy jones hi reply was that it was part of the postman s lore that the famous musician had serve in their service yes i had spent my moment with a person of greatness posted by a barer at 11 39 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday october 20 2013 tom foley and israel it was 1984 my late wife and i were in washington d c to attend the apac convention what a great experience to be in the nations capitol copngressman foley s walla walla office had supplied us with passes for the white house and other capitol landmarks the majority whip office supplied us with an intern to guide us through the halls of congress where we viewed debates on the floor and jeannie was thrilled to sit in the chair reserved for the first lady when the president addressed the body congressman tom lantos an old friend invited us to lunch with him in the congressional dining room also we attended with him a joint house senate hearing on a resolution urging the moving of the u s embassy in israel from tel aviv to the capitol jerusalem the resolution sponsored by tom and senator moynahan of new york in a briefing by the apac staff member we were told that there was legislation in progress for a 100 000 000 00 grant to israel for civil uses going forward in congress this would be a switch from from the loans previously offered this would be a sea change and was a priority on our last day we dropped in to foley s office to thank him for his courtesies actually we were hustled into a waitng limousine with the congressman and an aid as we drove to the airport where he was to fly to the midwest for a speech he asked about the lantos moynahan resolution i thought hard for a moment swallowed and said i agree that it is tragic that because of arab pressure isreal is one of only two countries in the world where the embassy is not in he capitol but the more pressing need is the passage of the grant to isreal returning home i began receiving calls from apac urging me to call foley s office to urge action on the grant i kept assuring them that my rep was on board but the calls became more urgent the bill was in trouble aand only the majority whip could herd it through on the last day of the session literally at midnight the bill slipped through with a positive vote the following week tom foley was back in the district addressing a chamber of commerce meeting i went over to him to shake his hand alan i got your grant through he wispered as far as i know almost fifty years after isreal recaptured jerusalem from jordan and declared it the capitol the us still refuses to move the embassy posted by a barer at 1 26 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday october 18 2013 tom foley remembering a great man tom foley was my fifth district congressman hearing that he would be visiting walla walla i went to the democratic headquarters to hear his report it was warm spring day a day for mowing lawns fishing or playing golf very few people had time for politics that day as we sat together i mentioned that my former roommate at the university of washington tom lantos had just been elected to congress from his district in california i went on to relate the story told about bernard baruch the warren buffet of his day who had an office on the new york stock exchange floor a young man entered his office introducing himself he handed bernie an envelope the envelope contained a note from baruch s mother informing him that this was a son of her closest friend and that he had his heart set on a careewr on wall street the wizard of wall street said to the young man i am on my way to the restroom on the other side of the floor come with me and tell me all about the folks at home as we walk everyone will notice and will think you are making a presentation to me and if you cannot get a job after this you will not make it here some time later at a function tom foley then majority whip came over to me at a meeting and reported that he had singled out tom lantos among the many congressmen taking a break in the congressional clokeroom he said that they had sat in a place where everyone coming in or out could see them and he told lantos tell him about our times at the university of washington tom lantos went on to a long and distinguished career in congress and was always grateful to tom foley for

certain auto delivered to his home as the crew loaded it the sales manager came out and asked where the car was going on hearing the destination he pointed to a shiny new rolls royce and ordered it loaded as well when the truck arrived at the actors residence he said i have to have the rolls as well and wrote a check for 700 000 00 plus i spent fifty years trying to explain merchandising to my

this picture below of a young david barer may have been a setup for an ad it probably goes back to the 1920 s b barer adopted the name eastern hide for a time but it backfired because people enjoyed doing business with b barer but were put off by an unfamiliar name david was forced to drop out of school by the illness of his father and assumed an executive role by the age of sixteen the rifle is real david would often see coyotes as he traveled from trapper to trapper the idea was to shoot a coyote for the pelt and the bounty the problem was that the coyote would look on curiously while he was setting up but as soon as the click of a round being chambered was heard the animal would disappear posted by a barer at 4 18 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share
