@Eye for Beauty: Thanks for that, indeed!

@Harry: Let me know if you find anything. In the mean time, the human and the painted birds seem to be walking a contorted yet connected path, so there might be something metaphorical there. ;-)

@AMIR BABA: Many thanks, Amir.

@Le Krop: Here's to that!

@Le Krop: I miss him still, but am glad that he left *us* so much music. Thanks, sir! Il me manque encore, mais je suis content qu'il nous ait laissé autant de musique. Merci Monsieur!

@Le Krop: I was thanking the late, great, Man in Black, but I can also thank you for this extended chitchat... ;-)

Je remerciais le regretté, Man in Black, mais je peux aussi vous remercier pour ce bavardage prolongé ... ;-)
