Hi, Merle,
Welcome back to the Agora.
A funny thing happened on the way to the Food Court... what was that about
fruits, now?
My creativity works in fits and starts. And it's all for a good cause, if not
always for a good effect. It takes two; or a village, I forget.
BTW, I couldn't read music for a time, but could still make noises; then, I
could read music, play the 'cello, play violin, play guitar, play bass (guit.),
play Bari. Ukelele. Play Kalimba. It's still noise.
Writing music is probably more important than reading music; there are
Transcriptionists for that (writing).
Music is in the fingers, and ears. Some say in the feet, and in the
shimmy-shimmy-shake. I'm a poor dancer; getting better.
My use of "Apples and Oranges" was the most creative you've seen in at least
180 months, I'd wager. Go ahead and admit it here, thereby to absolve
everything.
Good to see you again.
Earlier today, I recounted some stories about you to a Detective friend here,
and called you my "cussin' Cousin". She larfed! And wanted to be
cussin'-cousins with me, too. But I told her I never reciprocated (vis-a-vis
cussin'). I think she's showing herself to be just a little of the jealous
type.
Be well, now,
--Joe
