Indeed, you're psychic. Just finished, had my dessert, and sitting down at the museum, actually facing the runway right today. All the 80s parts were blocked, so, or full. Anyway, it's watching planes come and go. And music indeed. Of course I play numerous instruments, wind things mostly. And it's funny because talking about reading music, when I was at the U, I had a friend, she was doing her masters in music, and piano was her performance instrument. And I sit down and just play a tune. You hear a tune, like Rosie said, sit down, play a tune on the piano. She's going, how do you do that? She could learn the most complicated things, but she could not sit down and just play something. And that is a separate thing aside from the reading. And with wind instruments, it's even harder in a way because you don't have a graphical layout or patterns, the keys like on the piano, but I'll do that with my oboe, or flutes, or recorders. And turn on some music and listen to it. Oh, I'll play with that. You get to find the right key, but you also learn what a note is. It's like St. Louis Red. You can learn it. This is an age when you hear it. So, of course in Europe where the tune is slightly higher pitch, Americans get confused. It's a subtle difference, but it's there. Anyway, nothing else exciting. We went and heard Fifth Avenue Midnight Something was titled. It was a music, the jazz from the Harlem area in the 20s and 30s, mostly Ellington music, absolutely best jazz performances. The band on the stage, the voices, the dancing, the lighting, the costumes. Boy, the fabrics looked right. They hung right. They moved right. And the sound was perfect. So often you go to things like a Clement Pledge. The sound is awful. They just run the bass up high. You can't hear the solo voices. I stopped and talked to the sound lady and complimented because nobody thanks them. They make the music sound great. Anyway, that's about it. I'm going to say 73. Everybody enjoyed today. It'll cool off Wednesday. I think tomorrow is still hot. But be well everybody. This is W70H.
