In graphic arts it is the softer side of the color wheel, the blues and greens. In music it is the soft or mellow tones of an opus that tend to relax rather than excite. The values change from time to time; a “zoot suit” is no longer “cool” but “retro.” But the meaning of “cool” has remained pretty static at least since I first heard the word many years ago.<br /><br />I don't know what "ginchiest" means either but it sounds very positive. I didn't bite my tongue trying to say it. That’s something.anyjazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03319237414264543250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-82745523480475420312009-05-26T09:01:08.516-05:002009-05-26T09:01:08.516-05:00Shawn ~~~ It's lucky I didn't have a mouthful of c...Shawn ~~~ It's lucky I didn't have a mouthful of coffee as I read that, or my next job would be to order a new keyboard.
