            I think he helped found PingPongParkinsons. Mr. AM is currently amping up his ping pong game, with a class and weekly play. This is on top of Rock Steady Boxing and tai chi. Busy guy!

              On a somewhat related note...I read this article a couple of days ago and meant to post it. After all, WTF started life as a piano forum...

                That’s lovely! Mr. AM picked up his guitar again earlier this year, but it’s not happening right now. Cycles…
