The "Let's Celebrate Ted" ... thread

 ;D :D ;D

Okay.  While there are many helpful people on this forum, I would just like to take a moment to celebrate Ted... he he.

See, I was sitting at the piano just now, improvising something, and thinking about how much your thoughts on the matters of music and sound, and composing and improvisation and ... and... have had an influence on me.  It's made a difference :)


Thanks for your input Ted,

yes.  ted is a very thoughtful and thought provoking person.  he has followed his natural instincts in music and he seems to be quite content to be a renaissance musician with combining practice of his own improvisations along with classical music.  ted has slightly lazy tendencies, but we forgive him (as one does the typical jazz pianist) because of his innate talents.  he also helps his wife with dishes.  that's really thoughtful.  this proves that a man doesn't have to lose his charm.

You are all too kind. However, I fear the forum persona may inadvertently differ from the reality. A very prominent musician, an internet contact, is holidaying here in a couple of weeks and has expressed a desire to meet me. She will no doubt expect to find scintillating wit, penetrating intellect and musical insight, but will instead encounter a rather large, placid, cloddish, unkempt man, living in a singularly ordinary house of remarkable untidiness.

Thanks m1469.
