I believe the guidance of a good teacher is the way to find out what works most efficiently for you.

Dittos!
The only problem is finding someone who can find the most efficient way for you.

Do away with Electoral College, and we'll have a true democracy, which is defined by two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

Excellent analogy J.

No it's not. It presupposes that the third party is a lamb. What if they're all wolves or all sheep? Works in other counties and is a heck of a lot more democratic. I'm tired of the premise of "one man, one vote" being a farce.

Which is precisely the problem. Pure democracy will not work because it is easy for tyrants to convince the weak, the ignorant, and the stupid to support them in order to eliminate the competition. A lot of that can be done by pulling the old bait and switch.

I think that it is free until June sometime.

I am having a hard time making this url a link.

@Bob-Pixley Not mean to me Bob. I've played a couple. One was absolutely the best piccolo I had ever played at the time. It might still be. IT WAS OWNED BY A CIRCUS CLOWN. I asked if he would sell it but he said that it was part of his act so he couldn't. AAAARGHHHH!!!!!

Give an arpeggio the Clifford Brown treatment. Go chromatic upper and lower neighbor then the chord tone.
All 8ths and swing it. Accent the bold gives a good feel.
Db B C , F D# E, Ab F# G, C (or Db B C)

Incorrect use of the word “myself” is maddening. It is rampant in the U.S.A. these days.

I love the ones that call for lessons a week or so after they buy a piece of junk.

I probably would cause too much of a stir by posting Calvin the Deplorable cartoons. They are pretty funny though.

@SSmith1226 and @Brian-Moon

That's all very interesting. Science is defined by observation, and there is no recorded observation for the millions of years, etc., which makes it all just everyone's best guess. Most people can't make an accurate portrayal of events 100 years ago, much less the supposed millions of years ago. Who can hope to authoritatively state such a record?

I remember looking into carbon dating a while back, and the margin for error is apparently astronomical. As a dating mechanism it has more questions than answers, yet it was taught as the standard for my entire school tenure.

Anyway, don't know how all this landed under the topic of humor, so, uh, here's a quick joke:

What is green and has wheels?

Grass. I was lying about the wheels.

No proof for millions of years. One reason is that it is physically impossible. PM me if you'd like to know more. The best evidence shows that Utah was covered by an ocean about 4,500 years ago.

@BigDub said in A little humour:

As for proof, is there pudding involved? If not, then, sorry.

Sorry no pudding.

One thing that TH has that would help is a vibrant marketplace. How can we grow that?

@SSmith1226

What proof do you have that rocks are a certain age?
Evolutionists have been taking their own assumptions as truth and building "evidence" with them for a long time.

The New York Times lies consistently. You can't trust it.

What is the proof that jellyfish have been around that long?

@administrator It sounds like you haven't seen the book. It's premise is range development by doing basic skills and progressing gradually in range. One's sound depends on whether you are paying attention to it or not.
