It was kind of long, wasn't it.

I knocked it out in a day. In fairness, there are some repetitive themes in this that I have been teasing out in other essays, and so when Joseph (Library of the Untold) inspired this with his video, the dot in my head connected the way people see constellations. It was just there. Find his videos and check him out! I think you will like him.

Believe it or not, my good Sir, I used to be a musician. Some people say there is no 'used to be,' but I assure you, I went thirty years without touching a piano and any skill or talent I thought I had- it's gone. With effort, I might regain a fraction, but I would rather focus on improving my writing. I was a voice major, 1987, with scholarship at UTSA, with intent in minoring in piano, and my piano teacher was Myrna von Nimitz, who was the San Antonio Little Theater's music director.

All the songs in here are in my head. If I see a movie and it has a good soundtrack, I won't forget it. Adventures in Babysitting, I think it was okay, but seriously the opening song, and BB King Cameo made it a movie I feel compelled to recommend. the movie Heart and Souls, Robert Downey Jr and Elizabeth Shue, also a must see, and there is a BB King cameo!

Good morning!
