What did I get???
Well, how would my birthday be complete without upsetting Scotty Potti and Loco
with a list of a few of my gifts... From Suzanne....A Pentax Optio S5I, a tiny 5MP camera for times when I don't want to lug the big ones around! Nice!!!! Smaller than a credit card! From two ex-girlfriends....Nikon SB 600 flash for the Nikon, which I'm keeping afterall. From friends....1100 dollars in Circuit City and Harvey's giff certificates! Also: 500 dollars in Babies R Us giftcards!!! Arrrrgggg!!! Dinner was at the 5 Boro Cafe followed by a D&D cake. Thanks for the birthday wishes! I'm buying a lot of classical music for Thomas today RB |
What do you like? I have a very nice collection and I've converted many of
my CD's to MP3s. I find it easier to take my music sailing this way. btw - I'm a descendent of the German composer who wrote the first piece (formally) played by Mozart. That info and $5 will get you a slice of NY style pizza. Scout "Bobsprit" wrote I'm buying a lot of classical music for Thomas today RB |
What do you like? I have a very nice collection and I've converted many of
my CD's to MP3s. Pretty much any classical. I have a good collection, mostly on CD now. Thomas certainly responds to the music. I'll wait a while before introducing Etta James and Pink Floyd. RB |
"Bobsprit" wrote in message ... Pretty much any classical. Hoo Boy! .... yup Bob's a real classical music afficiando! I have a good collection, mostly on CD now. I doubt he meant 'vinyl albums' when he asked about your classical music collection Bob! Thomas certainly responds to the music. Cripes Man... at that age they respond to warm milk, smiles and barking dogs! CM |
Pretty much any classical.
Hoo Boy! .... yup Bob's a real classical music afficiando! Actually I am. Is this a problem for you? RB |
Thomas
certainly responds to the music. Cripes Man... at that age they respond to warm milk, smiles and barking dogs! They also show a temperment adjustment when soothing music is played. Again, do you have a problem with is or are you just offended by classical music? RB |
"Bobsprit" wrote in message ... Pretty much any classical. Hoo Boy! .... yup Bob's a real classical music afficiando! Actually I am. Is this a problem for you? Actually...... Yes! It's like someone asking if you are into boats.... and what kind of boats are you into..... with the subsequent reply of pretty much any boats. It speaks volumes about the shallow depth and dubious veracity of your claim. You can no sooner like all Classical Music than you can like all Rock Music!.... but most likely if the question had been regarding Rock Music you would have been able to name some bands. CM CM |

Ha Ha Ha Ha How Anal! CM |
Actually I am. Is this a problem for you?
Actually...... Yes! Listing the specific areas of interest in classical music would take up far too much space and item. My areas of study range of religious to modern classical, from operetta to Japanese Trios. Most people who love classical tend to love all of it and I'm no different. Sorry if my response was too broad for you. RB |
It's like someone asking if you are into boats.... and what kind of boats
are you into..... with the subsequent reply of pretty much any boats. Abd it would be an honest answer because I do love all boats. I LOVE powerboats, trawlers and fishing boats and ski boats just as love sailing boats. "In youth I fell in love with the lines of all ships that traveled the oceans and turned a loving eye towards them." Sorry, Mooron. You've only betrayed a shallow cynical view that is yours to bear. Best of luck with that! RB |
You can no sooner like all Classical Music than you can like all Rock
Music!. What a sad shallow view. Have you ever listened to Chinese Classical? It's discordent and unpleasant at first. It's far different with minor melodies burried. But composer told me that it held it's own brilliance once studied and he was right. I own several Chinese recordings not including the modern. I'm so sorry for you Mooron, truly. It's a tiny world you've built for yourself. And you've clearly had no philisophical reflection on the arts beyond what a child might feel. RB |
but most likely if the question had been regarding Rock Music you
would have been able to name some bands. Yeah, like Mozart's "band???" Yep, I like Mozart. But then that's like saying "I like breathing." This may surprise you, but beyond the challenges of modern classical, most true music lovers go through stages of appreciation for various composers. There are favorites at a given point in time. If you listen to enough and study it over the years you move beyond lame comments like, "I LOVE Suite for three oranges!!! Mooron the child strikes again. RB |
See Scout... it only takes a well placed poke and Bob is now waxing
sophisticate on the type of classical music he alleges to enjoy. :-D Tut! Tut!... don't thank me! It was my pleasure! Now if only we can get Bob to accurately determine if Jr. Brody's "responses" are due to the music or gas! CM "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message ... "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

So now you claim to love Macgregor's, cheap inflatable dinghies,
battleships, rafts, jet skis, styro sailboats, Oil Tankers, Container Vessels, Korean Longliners and Japanese Drift Netters as well as Whaling vessels?

How convieniently pretentious to believe that premise..... but at least it affords credibilty to my assumption that your only interest is to stoke the possibility that someone may mistake you as having a clue as to what constitues good taste and fine art.

What an odd dichotomy you present. CM |

wrote in message Moroon and Scotty liked Mozart until they found out the name was "Mozart", and not "Ozark", They were further chagrined to discover that Mozart's hairstyle was NOT a mullet. If they ever realize that Mozart never even heard of NASCAR, they'll be crushed!!! How the heck did Scotty get lumped into this??? Ozark Mountain Daredevils.... now that's classical! CM |

It seems to me that
persons holding such a point of view have only one goal.... and that is to convince others of their purported intellect and supposed good taste. That's a laugh. You seek to have me name drop classical composers and when I don't "it's to impress???!!!!" Bwahahahaha! Oh, okay! RB |

discordent and unpleasant at first.
No it's not No? Perhaps you can tell me what famous European composer said the following? "Not even a Chinaman can hum the melody of most Chinese Classical." It was one of Bernstein's favorite quotes and quite accurate, but YOU know better! RB |
he was right. I own several Chinese recordings not including the modern.
Because the composer told you??? ...... that speaks volumes! Yes, it's called LEARNING. We can often LEARN from those who are gifted in a art. Try it sometime! RB |
And you've clearly had no philisophical reflection on the arts beyond
what a child might feel. How convieniently pretentious It's clearly obvious. Your effort to troll only revealed the simple fact that you are massively limited. Again. RB |
saying
"I like breathing." No it's not..... breathing is a requirement! Not it's not. It's a programmed reflex that can be haulted any time you wish. RB |
Oh good Grief.... now you claim to have "studied" classical music??!!!
Do you sincerely believe that classical music requires study to be appreciated??!! Nope, never said that, though you are clearly threatened by it. The study of a given art will often afford a deeper understanding and appreciation. That's WHY PEOPLE STUDY, Mooron! Golly! There's a shocker! RB |
Ah... so now I'm not intelligent or educated enough to appreciate classical
music?? You probably appreciate it much the same way as my infant son does. Congrats! Hey, everyone! I like Brams! Now Mooron will think I like classical!!!! RB |

Of course Bob.... it's the tried and true "damned if you do" ploy. Net's
you every time! Be grateful you exhibit sufficient wit to warrant my replies. CM "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

It was one of Bernstein's favorite quotes and quite accurate, but YOU know better! Actually it was featured on CBC.... unlike the USA we are privy to global music, news and programming. Just last week they had a 2 hour program on classical Japanese music and instruments. CM |
"Bobsprit" wrote in message Which you believe is aided my name dropping a bunch of composers??!!! Oh, OKAY!!!! Bwahahahahaha! No Bob... it's sufficient that you believe it ...and the rest of us see clear through it. Just because you market manure, it doesn't make you a farmer..... and in your case Bob... I'd suggest hip waders cause you're gettin' in deep enough to fill those gumboots.:-D CM |
