  1. Just had a friend (known to a few here) have a bout of heat stroke while in very high heat in Arizona (he's 66 and was visiting his MIL).  Fortunately, he's ok and is back home safely!

    Mad respect for Dave being able to handle the conditions! ??

    The performing before farming it out is a good point. Then you encapsulate the intent rather than handing a lyric sheet to someone. "One Night in Bangkok" had the music completed first, so they sent a partial with those lyrics to the lyricist to give them something to show the intended melody, but the lyricist liked it so much they kept them and ran with it.

    The human voice is the most complex instrument there is so focus on that instrument (be it yours or another's), rather than a program. Some programs are so complex they take forever to get the nuances in them that a human "just does." One cannot learn to walk (or run) for themself relying on crutches.

    This is how Phil Collins ended up singing for Genesis.  He made the intent versions for others to audition against, but the band kept liking his versions better!

    We’re moving to The Villages. My parents have been there about six years now and the hurricanes lose steam by the time the reach them. A birdcage over the pool is a must though - not a fan of hanging out with critters like scorpions or poisonous spiders. ?

    So...  Let me see if I have this correct...  A "birdcage" would stop a scorpion or poisonous spider? ?

    I was thinking more of something like this (which WAS found in a Florida pool! ??

    I'd LOVE to live on the ocean or at least a canal but my wife wants absolutely NOTHING to do with hurricanes...

    I've lost that battle - we will be inland. :)

    Hmm...  You might want to do some research then!  Those hurricanes go right across the state!

    And the bugs, snakes and gators are truly Jurassic park-like!

    (I've learned a lot since my friend moved there about 18 months ago!)
