1. I played in college. I played in the marching band, and I played bass clarinet in the college concert band. I was VP of the band my junior year. I traveled all over the United States, and marched in Tokyo with the band.

2. I picked up my clarinet for the first time in 20 years to travel to a college band reunion this past October in Indiana.

3. I still own my clarinet. The pawn shop pays me to continue owning it...

4. I have three kids; they're still not old enough.

5. See number 4; I am not a grandparent.

6. Unfortunately, none of my children play in the band. Two are not old enough, and the one who is old enough would rather be a basketball player.

1. Did you pick up your instrument after high school graduation?

I was in the band at UTSA for a couple of years. Otherwise the last time I picked up my flute was last year when I too had to collect it from my parents' house, after moving back from overseas.

2. Do you still play? Where and when?

I would, just for fun (as long as no one else was around), like I used to, but don't now because it needs a complete overhaul, new pads, the whole works, after spending the last 12 years in my parents' storage shed.

3. Do you still own your instrument? If not, where is it?

I still have my original flute plus another one given to me by a friend after university because he didn't want his anymore. That one also needs a complete overhaul, same things, same reason.

4. If you have kids, how old are they?

We have nine, all under three years of age = 3 dogs (Daisy, Wally, Fiona) and 6 cats (Bubba, Nigel, Winston, Minnie, Zoe, Clemmie).

5. Are you a grandparent?

No, thankfully they've all been fixed. Nine is enough!

6. Do any of your kids or grandkids play in the band?

No, but one of the cats, Zoe, has extra toes, so she'd be the one to take it up -- if I ever get around to getting those flutes overhauled.
