Heh. Really cool. I especially liked that there was some little kid's sheet music on the piano as the delivery guy flew through the exposition of the 3rd movement of the Moonlight Sonata.

Not just pilots, they had this lovely man killer:

Smart, beautiful and deadly

And people wonder why I'm still single.[:D]

But she did love men as well, even one not as smart as her. She also used to climb into her college dorm room at 3 or 4 am . . .

Sorry, BBfanboy, here he is playing the same thing but not in that house on that piano.

I think he's actually an octopus in disguise.

[geofflambert]

Sorry, this appears to be, at least in part, a fraud. The player has YouTube videos from 4 years ago playing the same piece.

[geofflambert]

Also there is video of him playing at a much younger age with sheet music spread before him, so that part of his story is BS.

What else would you expect from the washington post. Look up who owns it . . .

I knew that James Cook named the Hawaiian Islands the "Sandwich Islands". I just learned that he also named the New Hebrides Islands the "South Sandwich Islands". So what does that make Tarawa and Canton Island and so forth, the "Peanut Butter and Jelly Islands"?

Nope, Ham and Cheese . . .

Or in the case of the Pacific where you may not have the refridgeration capabilities, SPAM!

Sir James must've been hungry for sandwiches all the time, then, maybe because he couldn't cook?

When I saw that profile picture of the island I wonders what a Russian Akula sub had to do with the Sandwich Islands ... [8|]

That is what can happen when you go to Detroit to play baseball . . .

[jwolf]

Detroit's shortstop looks pretty good on defense ...

[Lecivius]

I've heard that was a tough place to play, but this is ridiculous! [:D]
