From a press release for “Mingle, Jingle and Jazz,” a fundraiser for the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra Friday at Morton’s:

“Mingle, Jingle and Jazz at Morton’s is a great way for locals to enhance their holiday celebrations with Jazz,” said Ronald Markham, CEO and President of the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra.

Who outside of the NOJO talks like that? Who thinks, “This holiday’s pretty nice, but it would be so much nicer if someone would just sprinkle some jazz on it”?
