Right.

Thatā€™s the hardest part of music:
Having something to say when you playā€“
If you have a hundred whistles,
And you play them every day,
Thatā€™s not enough to make real music
Till you know what you want to say.

I wanted to post a humorous reply to this threadā€¦but I couldnā€™t really think of anything good.

Thelonious Monk said that writing about music is like dancing about architecture.

I donā€™t know what that means, but I love it.

8

Yeah, what means ā€œtheloniousā€? I know of a screaminā€™ Jay Hawkins whoā€™d put a spell on yours, monks, butā€¦

During my masters training (in Architecture) we had a seminar about architecture and dance. Seriously. I danced about architecture. Iā€™m not proud of it though. I look back on it as a low point in my life.

10

Shame on you.

11

I know, I know. :blush:

Pour salt on my wounds why donā€™tā€™cha. :cry:

12

Next time ask yourself, WWJCT?*

  • What would John Calvin think?

Thatā€™s the trouble with architectureā€”it might start out harmlessly enough but sooner or later it inevitably leads to dancing.

This reminds me of an OT joke which I loveā€¦
And elderly Orthodox Jewish man comes to his Rabbi and says ā€œRabbi, as you know, my wife and I are going to have a party to celebrate our 60 the wedding anniversary. As you also know, it is forbidden by our tradition for men and women to dance together ( nb: this is true in some Orthodox traditions). On just this one occasion, could I not have the joy of dancing with my wife?ā€.
The Rabbi responds ā€œNo, the Law is the Law, and it is forbiddenā€.
The man follows with" Rabbi, our tradition does not limit sexual relations between man and wife, and in fact considers this to be a mitzvah ( commandment), right?" to which the Rabbi responds " Yes, this is true".
ā€œSo, if I were to come home in the middle of the day and see my wife making the bed, if I were overcome with love for her I would be within my rights to pull her down on the bed and make love to her right then and there?ā€. The Rabbi says " Of course!ā€œ. " And if I were to see my wife dusting in the living room, would it be OK to lower her to the floor and have relations right there?ā€ Again the Rabbi responds ā€œYes, it would be wonderfulā€. The man keeps at it: " And if I were to come home and see my lovely bride of 60 years working in the kitchen cooking my dinner and become overcome with love, would it be allright to make love to her standing right there in the kitchen?ā€œ. The Rabbi says " Absolutely not! Standing up, it might lead to dancing!ā€
(thanks for reading this far!)

Paul, Iā€™m pretty sure I got my joke from the same source. What Iā€™m not sure of is whether I heard it from the Jewish branch of my family or (with suitable changes) from the Presbyterian.

16

Nice way to push your post count upā€¦ say something totally urbane.

Is that me youā€™re talking about Larry? I thought I was just being honest in admitting that my first joke wasnā€™t wholly original. :laughing: My second joke was though.

Seriously though, jokes (which are always welcome) aside, is anyone posting on this thread doing anyhting more than pushing up their post count?

18

Nope, not me. Then again, Iā€™m not really posting here. Just answering your question.

Move along folks, nothing to see here!

:laughing:

Too true, I shouldnā€™t have responded.
But the original post in itself was totally a waste of the board! :smiley:
