Compound thread...
on: November 20, 2006, 11:04:08 PM
Well - why not try to reduce the load and collate certain threads as though they belong together, thereby inviting the possibility that readers may be able to seek out less threads when checking out the latest additions to the forum.

Even within the "Anything but Piano" section alone, we could, for example, have
"Sexual Organ Registration Dysfunction - A Plague of the God Warrior's MIND"
"What if some pissed-off-at-life mind reader thinks it's time right now to listen to a crumb association thread?"
"What huge joke are you thankful for eating with violence right now?"
"Who invented underwater visual barber programming?"
"Why is this quiet guy's study forum so addictive for US democrat forces?"

You get the drift - by which token the hottest male pianist ever is, of couse, Jascha Heifetz (who, incidentally, is pictured in the current issue of BBC Music Magazine playing the bagpipes, although the caption doesn't let on which of the 24 Caprices he was playing at the time...)

Best,

dear ahinton,

you relieved my mind.  i thought i was the only one looking at 'organ registration' through a different lens.  although my take was that a dead person would want to register his/her organs before donating them - thus registering one's own organs with a hospital or something.  i thought this was some news item.  then, come to find out - it's organ registration for pipe organs.  oh.  that was really new!  although, i've often wondered those basic questions myself. 

you know, i think my son's dentist knew what i said about him (somehow).  he pointed out that he was bald because of all the work he did in dental school.  now why would he point out that fact, if he hadn't mind read my thread about how i thought he was rather attractive -except for the baldness?  can some people who are very bright also read minds.  i'm scared now to say anything about anyone - although the internet is probably the best invented spy system there ever was.

can i - on this thread - also refer to another thread that i can't find right now and need desperately to find out the answer.  we had a question about if anyone had some good arrangments of copyrighted music from alladin (specifically - you ain't never had a friend like me) - because i bought the music - but it lacks what an arranger might be able to do to it to 'spark' it to life.  do you think music can be 'ressurrected' fromt he dead?

Well, I do occasionally do useful things like that...

Your dentist pointed out that your three-year-old son was bald? You're an American; I'd sue, if I were you...

do you think music can be 'ressurrected' fromt he dead?
What I think about this is that I, Alistair Hinton, a mere composer, really ought to - and indeed do - know better than to attempt to make any kinds of claim to you, "susanistimo", as to whether anything - music or otherwise - can be "resurrected from the dead"; I may as well tell you what God looks like following my first sighting of Him (or is it Her?)...

Best,

Alistair
