Can't blast in Thailand, but I own an isolated old chateau in Europe, where only the birds and bees and wild boars can hear.

 

When I'm there, the perfect blastable is Aaron Copeland's 'Fanfare for the Common Man'.

 

It shakes the apples and pears off my orchard (which the boars come eat at night). Not sure if they like Copeland. Maybe his Appalachian Spring is more their style.

 

Then again, Hendrix' 'All Along the Watchtower' might fit the place more.

I am VERY interested in your comment.

Also....

Envious, too.

 

Note:  I grew up on Appalachian Spring, conducted by Copeland, by the way...

 

A good friend of mine, a Linguistics Prof in NYC, knew Copeland quite well.

He told me a number of very nice stories about dinner parties....

Nice stories....

 

Note2:  Although this Linguistics Prof disliked Copeland's music...yet....Copeland was very attentive in listening to his daughter, at the dinner party, and so was impressed from this aspect..at least.

Has anyone here wondered why I enjoy intentionally misspelling so many words?

 

It's all down to Mr. Lacessit.

 

Mr. Lacessit once stated on this forum that misspellings make him cringe.

 

Ever after, I have done my best to add a few well-placed misspellings in my Topics just to make my good friend cringe.

 

Otherwise, how else could I better make his day, beginning in the AM?

 

I know that he reads my Topics in the mornings, over his coffee.

And so, I would never wish to disappoint him....

 

He knows that my creative spellings of words are intentional.

 

Nails across a chalkboard...

Just to get him started in the mornings, and nothing more.

Alas, I regret I am too old to wade my way through your voluminous posts, seeking misspellings like a truffle hound on the scent.

I note in the post I am responding to there is not a single example of misfeasance.

You cannot inhibit my ataraxy with intentional faux pas. Or should that be faux pas's?

If you are a truffle seeker...

 

Then, it would not be paws....

 

But, it might be TROTTER.

 

The animal best suited for seeking out truffles walks upon four trotters, as I know you know....

I am not in any competition to establish my complexity vis-a-vis yours. If anything, I am finding simplicity more fulfilling as I age.

The best animals for finding truffles are dogs right?

Well thats a personal choice. Nowadays I can sometimes even listen to death, trash metal, grunge, werent favorite for me for long time.

But  then still some are still out of my league. A personal choice.

Greta Van Sleet is a pretty big band.

They are obviously talented musicians, but man does this guy's voice (and his appearance and aura) make me cringe. 

That's not singing. It's screeching. 

I am afraid I will get syphilis from watching and listening to this guy.

The problem with pigs is they like eating truffles too, whereas hounds do not.

As the OP, shouldn't you be staying on topic? Just saying......

Better to keep as few friends as possible, because everything is a competition and it wears you out.

Please Note:

 

This is probably my best post during the past three years.

 

So, I hope this effort of mine is dully appreciated.

 

I always do my best, but....

This is the only post that truly measures up.

 

Note:  When I used the word dully, instead of duly, I was using dully intentionally.

 

Or, the word dully might have been a typo.....

Hard to say....

Truly amazing.he plays with feeling and even uses the echo in the church.

I thought pigs.

Expand  

In the old days ,yes.

Using the pigs had one big draw back,it was always their intention to find truffles and eat them!

So you had to fight a big hog to get there first.

A dog you can actually train to find truffle scent and then they will alarm you and not eat

the truffle.

Why not just use a hog, and then share and share alike.

 

After all....

 

Hogs got to make a living, too....!

I do blast ,sometimes but i do listen to music everyday.

Too bad the regular music thread is not doing so well lately.

Mostly listening with headphones now but sometimes i warm up the Amp!

All kinds of music,as long as it suits my mood.

Speaking of young people today....

 

In some cases, our young people just keep getting BETTER and BETTER.

 

Sure, we have heard about the Flynn Effect, for example.

 

But, on another front, musically speaking....

I would say that the young people of today are even more talented.

This young woman is truly amazing....and....I doubt....that....

50 years ago, it might have been so easy to find someone possessing the beauty of her voice and the magnificence of her training....

 

Therefore, I am very impressed by this performance of hers....

And, do NOT sell short the young people of today!

No very serious,even baby pigs will hurt each other when they are suckling.

Hogs don't share, even the hogs in daily live.
