Math and music are two sides of the same coin. Go tap that out on your piano.



I tried with the Virtual Keyboard and it didn't sound like much because I had to keep looking back at the notes. I'm no musician.

I only know two pieces; one is 'Clair de Lune' and the other one isn't.

I have an old player piano and Clair de Lune on one of the rolls, so technically I can play it. My kids learned that one from Oceans' 11. They're getting culture despite my bad influence.

No worries, I can't get it either. I might be off tempo, or I just might not know the song =/

The difference between a violin and a viola is that a viola burns longer.

I have 3 viola players in my house. Basically, it's easier to play the viola parts than the violin parts, and it's much less bulky than a cello or bass, which is why my kids picked it. I got some clever kids.

I wish to thank my parents for making it all possible... and I wish to thank my children for making it necessary.

Nobody knows it yet, I just made it up. Improv, baby!

Try this: every note is an 8th except for the last note in each row. The first row ends with a half, the second with a half, the third with a quarter. Then repeat. Play as a fast swing. (and include Buzz's first 5 notes)

Update:

Click the play button in the lower left corner. Technology FTW!

I love it, everyone is kissing up to Mission now that he's a public admin. ("Congratulations, well deserved, remember I said this when I call someone an ass!")

I would wish congratulations, but it seems like one of those jobs that really isn't that fun. So instead of saying congratulations, I'll say "Sorry, but thank you for doing it"



When are the rest of the secret administrators going to come out of the um secret place? What we really need here is a good old fashioned sheriff.

Mission146 was actually the second choice for this job. The first choice was Barney Fife.

P.S. It's had to make an unpaid administrator earn his pay, but I still intend to try.
