JohnG Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Yea, actually I do, but I pay about as much attention to all this crud as I do to the current "let's have a go at" insert any celebrity name. E.g. Jackson, Cliff Richard, that film producer whose name I've forgotten, etc. Frankly, it bores the pants off me. Now where did they go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you're not American but he's a very popular TV personality and comedian who was busted in recent years by the so called #Metoo movement (man hating feminists, for the most part). A bunch of women came out after some 30+ years to claim he sexually assaulted them. Why they waited that long to report a rape is the question of the century. But they all ganged up on him and as the result of one, he is currently in a PA (USA) prison for drugging a women in the 1980 to seduce her. He's 81 years old and legally blind. It's a controversy whether or not he was fairly tried. More details here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Cosby ?John B That's why IMHO "Me too" is the incarnated inquisition (Catholic Church). And it is not the only thing that reminds me these days of the Middle Ages! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you should definitely pay close attention to the current situations mentioned in the video I linked, but if you choose to ignore it, it's your funeral, my friend. ?John B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like many people, maybe everyone, I can remember the words to many songs and can instantly "sing" along to something that comes on the radio that I haven't even thought about for years and that's way more than 32 words, but that's just normal remembering stuff, right?

Or compare it to a virtuoso who can play a complete piano concerto of, say Rachmaninov, without a score, and give a slightly different interpretation every time. Now how many notes is that? Quite a few I believe. Never taken the trouble to count, I'll start now! ? One, two, ... ... four hundered and twenty two thousand and seventeen, ... ?

Hmm are you sure you counted right. Maybe you should do a recount. There might of been a fleck of dust that you thought was a note? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnG Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Oh! NO. Hang on, ... ... ... ... I think you may be right. One, two ... P.S. I was only counting the piano notes, not the rest of the orchestra. Is that considered cheating? Edited March 15, 2019 by JohnG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
