(edit) Saul -- I misunderstood your question and gave an answer about my recital last month instead!
Let's see, my Chopin waltz 2 years ago -- that would have been at the Chopin competition in Warsaw.....I guess it was OK. smile

You could. Many of us are still curious, and I daresay whatever you post will be better than whatever direction this was going.

You had to google that, Mark? Well forgive me, but I thought -you know, living in NYC and such- you would have understood what that reference was about.

In New York, I guess there's no need to use expressions that avoid the issue, we just tell it straight.
No pun intended of course. ha

Wow he's back
Welcome to the new, un-improved thread, MathTeacher!
It went off to another universe because we thought you had gone off to another universe.

Mark is not alone. I hate to admit it, but I thought it meant: people who liked the movie the Wizard of Oz. Live and learn.

I fail to see how the ability to reverse into a car park space is essential in a relationship.

Well MathTeacher? Has she kicked you to the curb yet?

I don't really mean that as rudely as it sounds. People are complex, and I'm sure you have many fine qualities to bring to a relationship, but as other have noted, those qualities are not on display in this thread. If a relationship is what you really want, you should at least be aware of that fact. As a member of the 1 in 10,000 club myself (not only can I reverse park, I'm very tall), I have to say that your presentation here makes me want to practice flamenco on your fingers.


99% of what I produce at the piano is simply noise, but that other 1%? That's music.

Please do discuss it. It might pull the thread back into this universe, which would be very welcome.

Well, I was going to yesterday when I logged on. But the newly found lunacy in this thread made me reconsider. I have no idea what the reaction would be now.

... and I thought it referred to those who sat around the Algonquin Round Table with Dorothy Parker! Although that is one of the reputed sources of the phrase. As to its current implication : who knew? smile

Apparently Judy Garland is some sort of Icon for this. I'll have to Google for the reason why. laugh

Why would anybody ask a bunch of musicians for relationship advice?

I agree that the last people on earth I would ask for dating advise are musicians, and I'm not kidding.

Who do we have here?
