Subject: Re: Will we see you in April?! Author: Alan D. Valentine [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 08:53:30 04/01/03 Tue In reply to: Debbie 's message, "Re: Will we see you in April?!" on 15:49:56 03/31/03 Mon Now, Debbie, maybe it's all of the time spent in the music biz, I dunno, but I didn't see the typo myself on first read and would have been completely oblivious to it had you not so eloquently pointed it out... ;-) P.S. and speaking of glasses, when I was in high school I had perfect vision, but these days when I take my glasses off and set them down, I'm in big trouble because I can't see well enough to find them, and I can never remember where I put them. YIKES! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Author: Debbie [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:49:50 04/01/03 Tue You know, Alan, I did worry about pointing it out to those of us who missed it the first time. But then I thought I might as well clarify it for the youngsters (those in their early 40s as opposed to mid-40s) who still have decent vision, as I didn't want Rabbit to have to field any embarrassing questions at the reunion. At least not about The Missus, anyway; as for the rest, he's on his own. I used to have perfect vision too, but alas, I know only too well what you mean these days! I'm far-sighted and only need glasses for reading, etc., but not for distances, so I'm constantly taking them off, putting them on, etc., etc., in order to see what I'm seeing. At times I can't see clearly, only to realize I need to take my glasses OFF, having forgotten I still have them on. Then I can't find them again when I need them. Sigh, I guess it's only a matter of time before I give in and end up attaching those fabulous rhinestone-encrusted tie-backs to them so they can hang around my neck when I'm not wearing them. Only I WILL draw the line at the requisite beehive hairdo that would complete "the look." Alan, I think it just could be the Music Bidness that's affected your eyesight, since I'm in the same boat after all those years working in the Psychiatric Bidness. From what I can tell, the fields are way too similar for it to be mere coincidence... :) [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Valentine [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 07:57:16 04/03/03 Thu Debbie, the similarities between the two fields are no mere coincidence, to be certain. In fact, one theory posits that the line between genius and insanity is actually part of a staff system - in the alto clef, of course, where the violas often play... ;-) Let me know when you finally need those rhinestone-encrusted tiebacks for your glasses, and I'll send up a pair from NashVegas, home of the country's only sequin mines. Why, I bet I might even be able to get them to throw in a knock-off of one of Porter Wagner's fabulous glittering western leisure suit jackets (with matching stones, of course) to complete the ensemble!

And iffen you can git 'em to toss in a platinum blonde Dolly wig, one of them thar Teased-Up, Sprayed-Down Cotton-Candy-Thang type numbers, I'd surely appreciate it. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
