I have not been at this blog forever but something really freaky just happened:
I have been trying to sell Ashley's Rhodes piano for almost a year (on and off). A few people came but nobody could find the cables for it so they did not buy it.
Now - Ashley, as you know, loved the Wire. David Simon is making a new series Treme where he might be using some of Ashley's blog material.
So - this morning a guy called. He said he just moved here from Europe and he wants to see the piano. He came this afternoon and he FOUND THE CABLES! They were in a storage in the lid of the piano. I am thinking - well you found it, congrats, it is yours. Then we got to talk about why he moved here. He is an actor and he plays in guess what - TREME!!!!!
Now the really freaky thing would be if he played a character based on Ashley because this guy, like Ash, had a shaggy beard and hair going all over the place.
Now tell me that that is not freaky. It was just meant to be.

Chills. Clearly meant to be. I'm so happy the piano's found a home & another piece of the universe is connected.

Hana, that is the coolest! I love that story. Clearly the guy was meant to have it if he just lifted a lid and found the cables! Bravo, girl! Have a great Thanksgiving.

Karma!
Posted by: Dr. A | 20 November 2009 at 03:20 PM
Soooo cool!
Hey by the way, the offer still stands for basic piano lessons for any or all of the kids... keep that in mind.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow. Thanks for sharing this :)

Oh sweetie. That is so awesome:)

Cute post. Thanks for sharing.

Freaky, but somehow not entirely surprising to me, Hana. Some things just make sense.

Thanks for sharing that story. I was so excited to hear that Ashley's words might be used in the TV show. It would be so good for you, for him, and for this city.
Peace,
Tim

Synchronicity. Ashely is missed.

Katrina victims of Mississippi River Gulf Outlet (MRGO) flooding may be owed compensation from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over its failure to appropriately maintain the MRGO. If you are one of the thousands of Louisiana residents whose property was located in the following Louisiana zip codes: 70129, 70117, 70092, 70085, 70075, 70043, and 70032, and you filed SF Form 95 claims with the Army Corps of Engineers on or before August 29, 2007, this site has lots of valuable information: http://www.yourlawyer.com/topics/overview/MRGO-Flood-Lawsuit

Wow, that is amazing. Hey, will there be a FYYFF episode?
Posted by: saintseester | 17 December 2009 at 07:42 PM
That is too perfect! It MUST be right. I hope it works out for you. I hope Treme does right by Ashley. He was one of a kind. A GREAT New Orleanian,

hey hanna
just thought i try to connect with family and ran across this crazy blog site for Ash. Wow...I am Debi Barnes Mumpower. My mother was Ashley's Aunt Vera. We were all very close at one time, but all grew away after time....

Hana,
Did you see this? Do you think John Goodman may be playing the part inspired by Ashley?

That was just meant to be. If you would have know the cables were in the piano. You would not have meet him.

It is better to practice 15 minutes a day rather than 1 or 2 hours every now and again.
I suggest writing down a practice plan and sticking to it. Let me know how you get on.
