Ah, but many of those would believe in the outrageous ones as well...

What did Mr. Barnum way?

Say...? the sucker born every minute....?

Mr. Barnum wayed jusst undr 200 ponds.
Yeah, say.

movie, for example. I can't tell the difference
between Kevin Bacon and Kevin Spacey; luckily I can
tell the difference, vaguely, between Kevin Spacey
and Sissy Spacek. I have seen only one movie in its
entirety that has starred any of those three, and I
am not sure which Kevin was in it. The movie was
Animal House.

There was a period of time when we were taking in a lot of Saturday matinees... haven't done that for a while now, though...

They were a buck less, weren't they. With my
eyesight in its current state, I might not be able
to tell Kevin Spacey from Sissy Spacek by sight
alone.

There are a lot of things I want, even if they
aren't quite real. Turkey Hill fat-free
sugar-free isn't one of them.

And you are also more discriminating than MJ was... :)

And less desperate, perhaps.

A bit of a mind-boggle... but I'm sure you did a creditable (although
not credited) job... :) Apparently it was all in more of an upper cello range....?

Yeah, though now they can change octaves
in the studio no problem.

I suppose that makes sense... probably just a matter of pushing a
button....

An octave jump just doubling the frequency,
no problem. It might have been that the other
frequencies that make up the timbre would be
messed up, but it turns out that by and large,
doubling them does no harm. If there's attack
or articulation, a good ear might be able to
tell a difference, but I'd guess most wouldn't.

Not a complete loss, then.... :)

Dessert, some kind of traditional Italian
compote, wasn't bad.

Enough to make up for the rest....? :)

Har, what do you think?

I'd guess not really... ;)

Got it in one.

... Don't hate yourself in the morning, sleep till noon.

Been there, done that, almost.

I'm thinking they may have been half price, even.... There was also (it
still exists) a movie house that regularly would show two films for the
price of one, and made an effort to have them have something in common
with each other.... I'm sure they charge more than they used to,
though... We kinda got out of the practice of going out to the movies...

And unless it had a lot of solo passages, even less likely that it would
jump out for very many people....

Figured. :)

We've done that.... Richard more than I, even.... of course being up
late makes it more likely.... ;)
