I was watching one of my fave comedians on YOUTUBE last night, and he said something pretty profound-or at least I perceived it that way.

"I bought a pair of glasses, then I put lines across them. At night, I went outside with my guitar and laid down and looked up at the stars. The stars were the notes on my lines, and I played the music that I saw. What if that's what the stars were for?"

It really made me think about it. I know that it was meant to be funny, but it hit me differently somehow....

Is there anything like that floating around in your mind?

What do you think about what he said?conversing

It's an interesting thought, but I don't know how to read music. I have lots of things floating around in my mind, but I can't post them or someone will probably have me committedrolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

My gosh that guy must be a great player...I tried it but I can't play bazillionth notes......I better work on my dexterity! I guess I get the most practice driving in traffic, but that only works out one finger on each hand......

I often wonder why roosters come with a comb but no hair......

How many electricians does it take to screw in a light bulb? I'll tell you but it will cost you $180.00 for the bulb and $500 in man hours to produce the info, if you back out the change-order will be an added charge, hey are you thinking right now well thats extra as well. Say can I just stand on your expensive dining chair so I don't have to get my ladder down off the Van?????.........
