If you're good...I'm good.

I remember the Mexican thing...Sometimes I don't explain real well and it sounds like something different...

I also have a habit of getting into arguments that I can't possibly win.
Pff, pick it out and do it by hand then? Put some effort into it!
Nah, sorry, didn't think of that while answering. Must have been my idiot moment of the day... (right after trying to play standard tune chords on a drop-d tuned guitar... but thats a different story - don't tell anyone!)

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about. I'm not a musician.

Let's see if we can get back OT if we can...

I used to play a trumpet, but I didn't actually play it, I just blew on it. I'm not a musician either.

Wait... 'blowing' on long, hard objects?

We're back on topic!

Been there, done that. It's most embarrassing because you're the one who went for a special tuning in the first place. Try an open-E or G tuning for slide. That'll really getcha!

Every group of people on earth have their own language. Don't worry about it.

I can explain it terms you can easily understand, but that's up to you.

I have an ounces worth of understanding. It's been two years since I took a music class where I learned something and it's been one year since the last class I took. I cant stand the lady who's teaching music at our school. She ruined it for me. She retired and they're hiring somebody new but I don't have any more intrest.


Truly a Woman Hitler, that lady was. The girls music class told us to give her a chance... We did...for about two months...until the first concert thing where it was made obvious to the crowd that she didn't give a flying fadoodle about the boys music class. She gave us this little simple short song to play on the xylophone things and the girls had this big elaborate thing.

She proceeded to tell the crowd "I chose these music pieces based on the ability of the class." We were perfectly able to do the more complex stuff. We had just had a teacher who was awesome. The Hitler teacher came in and started taking credit for all the stuff we were doing when she came into play.

We hated her....We hated her class...We didn't give her any more chances after the 2nd month of school. It impossible to make anybody else understand by this post... She called the boy's class dumb publicly at least 3 times. She even called us stupid once in class but that's a completely different story because we kinda...might have....caused it by playing the wrong parts in practice on purpose...


Music is ruined for me atm... I'll have to take Art instead. People like Steve who play(ed) in a band do some cool stuff. I'd like to do that....but I have too little patience for it. There's a kid I know who can play like 50 songs on the piano by memory. He went to the Missouri BETA Convention and won second place in special talent.

I'd like to do something...I just don't know what kind of instrument I'd want to play and since I'm not hardcore-interested in music it'd take some time for me to learn it.

That's more than fair. I hated history for a very long time because of one teacher who managed to make it so very boring. You'll either change your mind, or you won't. Either way you'll find something that turns you on.

Military History/Fiction and general 20th Century History are the big school "turn-ons" for me. I had thought that I had a pretty good understanding of the 20th Century wars and history until I joined Subsim...that's when I knew that I hadn't even made a dent in the knowledge base.

Now to add a turn on for the thread's topic.... Some of these posts have to be relatively OT. I've been trying not to derail too much lately. This way, I get both derailed and OT.



That was an easy one.

P.S. I know you guys like Black And White over Color...but there aren't any pictures in black and white...

It's just not worth learning to me.

Blasphemy! It seems you've also mirrored it!

I liked it better in color no matter what the NSA says.
