Omobono Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 Seems everyone is too busy doing whatever they do to answer you...... Was it Saint Augustine who said or wrote: "What was God doing on the Seventh Day? - creating hell for those who ask too many questions" ?? Anyway welcome, stranger. Might get more initial response with a musical question first up? Omo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Nielsen Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 I am a graphic artist for a medium size manufacturing firm. 6 years studying the violin. Dream of retiring and traveling the country camping and teaching the locals to do Irish step-dancing. I said dream right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 Fiddlefaddle is far too modest. He is a famous orthopedist who healed my hopelessly damaged shoulder through cyberspace treatment!

Catgut Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 Hi and welcome! I'm currently finishing my PhD on Type 1 diabetes. I took up the violin in July 2002 and thouroughly enjoying it.

Marie Brown Posted June 15, 2003 Report Share Posted June 15, 2003 Y'all re-inspire me to do my exercises. I'm a sight reader with forty-seven students and a bum left shoulder. I once wrote a master's thesis about a mezzo violin, while living with a curbstone car dealer. Someday there will be a movie about me starring Meryl Streep, if she doesn't die of old age before Hollywood discovers my tawdry tale.

Muse Posted June 17, 2003 Report Share Posted June 17, 2003 I agree science and music DO go well together. Most of the most successful scientists I know, are artistic in some way. I am an electrical engineer. I've been playing violin since I was 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph Liu Posted June 17, 2003 Report Share Posted June 17, 2003 Yes! I am a graduate of LSU and a big fan! It's too bad that they were eliminated a couple of days ago from the College World Series. I also learned to play the violin at LSU from the teaching assistants of Sally O'Reilly and Camilla Wicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
