Lifetime quest finally paying off!

First: get the anger out of your soul FranklinD.
Why is it when there is legitimate opinion expressed, it's accompanied with name calling and questioning someone's motives? Does that give more credibility to someone's opinion?
In my universe, name-calling someone a feckless turd because they see things differently, is just crude and has no place in this discussion. Too much crassness and too much emotionalism.
Carry on. I'm out of this one.

I can explain that mr. Kehaulani. It's just an adolescent trick, if you have some remark they say: why do you behave so unsure, no need for that. They all do, it's quite common among 16 up.

...Trouble with ME is he never seems to be satisfied with my playing...
Me too, and that is what keeps us progressing.
I have always had this saying by combining sayings that appear initially at odds: Practice makes perfect, but no body's perfect... so why practice?
That is not the final question, but the initiating thought for why I make such a statement. If one stops at the point where they have achieved "perfection" then they have sold themselves short as there is always a level above this... a new perfection so to speak, and if new goals are not reset then we stop progressing. So why practice? So to achieve goals to get to a level and then set new goals to advance beyond.

Please do.

I agree with the admin - after going off the rails and into undesirable directions, name calling and personal abuse, I am finally locking this thread. Enjoy.
