    @dolmansaxlil I saw tons of stuff that looked fabulous on the site. I’m still skipping spicy foods for now, but I was sorely tempted to order something! Let us know what you think of their stuff, if you end up ordering something.

    Push will come to shove and we will see if those associates will all take lower-paying positions. Some may, some will not.

    @Bernard said in Happy World Piano Day!: But I can manage quite well right now without a cello teacher because I know what has to be done, but the climb is slow and steady. That's great! Also, my main focus is on piano right now. Also great! I heard this piece "Les larmes de Jacqueline" by Offenbach last month and went looking for the music. Just listened, what a gorgeous piece!!! Wow! I can see why you would want to play it! The best I could find was a transcription for harmonica and harp written in G clef, but I downloaded it and am in the process of writing it out in F clef and C clef (where necessary) because that's what I'm most comfortable reading for cello. A good exercise in vibrato. "transcription for harmonica" is not something I expected to exist!

    Well, seeing as searching phones is now a thing, maybe it's just safer all the way around to not carry a phone.

    Imagine it. 5 year olds in tiny chains scrubbing the floors in the Florida capitol building. The MAGTs rejoiced!
