NO... No one mentioned him. No one at all. One person did accidentally open their mouth and managed to utter 'Sorab...' but he was quickly taken down by security personnel and beaten quite vigorously in the hopes to not inspire other mis-fits and trouble-makers.

Now it's back to being peaceful and I am once again winning, like I should be.

Garlic??? Meh, I'm sure you can be a little more creative than that. You need the Colonel's secret herbs and spices, and maybe a drizzle of that 'special sauce' whatever it is; although I somehow suspect it might be the end product of a spiteful teenager alone in a kitchen with no security cameras around.

Well.  It does grieve me to say it, but, that would appear that to be a darn near busted taillight.  Wouldn't you agree?

Now, kindly, I'd ask all of you participants in this escapade or hoo-rah that you've got to planning to step outside of the vehicle. 



And you all city folk don't get none of that secret herbs nor spices, so now you just start pitching that woo right up in that ... what was that French composer or English or what not?  They fancy composing types, ain't ne'er come 'round here.

Could be a deluxe barbecue like that say it out on the gulf.

Ain't that right, son?

Shoot, sure it is right.

What is it one of them Colonels from back in the old time saying something donkey and decorating is it pro patriots more I?

Yeah, that was a country boy, right there, that Horace, got it right in his name.

You know nothing about brain surgery.  You drill the hole to let the brain breathe, then you advance to calisthenics.

It also helps appreciate self-proclaimed avant-garde English composers of the 20th C, who are also accurately described by the term "outsider art."

I prefer enacting scenes from Deliverance with hand puppets.  With the curtains closed.  Who gets to play Ned Beatty's role?

It can vary from performance to performance, which makes it very exciting.

It consumes a certain amount of calories.

“Piano Dreams” - Exploring the Chinese Piano Explosion

The motivations for learning the piano are diverse, ranging from personal enjoyment to cultural appreciation and professional aspirations. While some see it as a way to connect with cultural heritage, others pursue it as a path to fame and fortune. In the movie “Piano Dreams” director Gary Lennon documents the struggles and sacrifices of three wannabe piano stars in modern China. Read more
