What are your favorite threads?  Do you have a top 10?

bob, they are all yours.  except mine about shiftless bikes.  it brought to mind a bunch of bicycles all hanging around a watering hole (while the bikers were inside drinking water/soda).  they start chatting with one another about how the cyclist treat them and what their different styles of riding are.  some bikes obviously sufferring more than others. (the gears never get cleaned on mine - but always pump the tires).
do you know why benches fall apart?  it is because they have lids with little tiny hinges so you can store music inside them.  hint:  buy a bench that does not hinge.  buy it for sturdiness.

well, mayla's 'what if's' and janice's 'wouldn't it be nice...' are great, too!  - i could imagine some good stuff happening at that castle in Germany. say, for instance, amanfang and i could perform experiments on people to see if they truly have good responses to music they say they like.  what if someone was a poser (didn't play piano) and said they liked chopin but their responses showed otherwise.  we would then have to put them on trial - 'electrodes hooked up to head, visual pictures of composer, notebook to record feelings' and soon find they are punkers.  kicked out or kept for experimentation purposes.
