I have no need to be an elitist concerning
[Read the article: In search of the holy grand ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Gould's or any other artist's music however, another pianist who was a genius, albeit in another genre was Errol Garner.
You can hear his humming as he played.
As an avid listener, these things never bothered me as, I have always been able to tune out and/or into that which I wanted to hear.
As just a common old fan of classical, symphony and jazz, I enjoy piano most.

Might I add another comment here
[Read the article: In search of the holy grand ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]concerning the symbiosis of classical and jazz music:
For those of you who do not understand this symbiosis, listening to Bernstein's "BURLESQUE TROMBONE", esplecially Elegy for Mippy ll and its danses will surprise you.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]There is a button/knob on yout TV.
I assume you even HAVE a TV.
Have someone explain its function to you.
After they spend so much frustrating time attempting to get you to understand that, ask them to explain about not reading that with which you disagree to the point of attmepting to be a moral elitist.
I'd bet that you fail at both regularly.

So often reading here is like reading a comic book
[Read the article: Grandma gets off]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'm a totally active guy in my 60s.
Totally active means getting out and DOING THINGS rather than just watching it all go by.
I can still do a lot of things I did all my life.
One really good thing that has increased(improved) with age is the recognize my needs v. wants, etc.
I've always been sexually active and used to go out looking to get laid as, it was never difficult.
Now I have different priorities and realizations.
For quite a while I've realized that allowing rather than attempting to make something happen is so much better.
I meet a low of women of all ages in my work, while shopping, golfing, etc.
Since I don't come across to these women as "actively pursuing" them, the exchanges between them and me are so much more comfortable and relaxed.
Too many people do not realize that taking it as it cums is so much better.

To: Cstan Bob
[Read the article: Slipped through the cracks]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]BIG high 5s to you for coaching them.
These women who play football are REAL American women, not soccer moms.
I enjoy watching women's sports such as football, softball, hockey and the LPGA among other sports.
I golf regularly and have teamed with some women who absolutely kicked my ass on the course.
There are many things about sports that the "pc" crownd doesn't understand.
One of those things is that it actually DOES build inner strength and teach good things.
Good for these women.

@ flying squirrel
[Read the article: Why wouldn't a 16-year-old boy want to live on a houseboat?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"This whole arrangement would give me hives."
Squirrels get fleas, not hives.
Let the kid live in the basement of the boat.lol

It has gone so far beyond amazing that
[Read the article: I'm sleeping with my best friend's fiancé ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]a female commenter will call the MAN names and puke up sympathy for the "conned' woman.
Let's see if I have this correct.
If a man is having sex with a woman and it is not forced, she has an EQUAL PART IN THE SEX!!
Females who cannot move past this FACT are internally miserable and full of anger & hate.
This imbecile fucked this guy and, it was CONSENSUAL!!
You can find "sympathy" in the dictionary right between shit and syphillis.

How to test the validity of the claims
[Read the article: "WTF" of the day]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Seems the only way to test the validity of the claims about this snake oil, er, cream that it actually shrinks an orifice is to use it on an orifice, I suggest it is initially tested on the mouths of the various talking heads at fox noise and mush limpbaugh, et al.
If it can shrink the mouths of these life forms, perhaps there is some truth to the claims.
Bring your money if you want to bet;)

The correct definition of "national security" is:
[Read the article: Exposing Bush's historic abuse of power]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Securing the continuity of those in power, a regime which has no connection to the "American People" as, the "American People" are nothing more than a source of money for the oligarchical closed community of controllers who have manipulated the laws of the country to perpetuate and insulate their own power.
As for the security of the "American People", we, the people have no security from the abuses perpetrated upon us by those in the closed community of government.

I await with bated(not baited) breath
[Read the article: Beijing's first event: Political gymnastics]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I just cannot possibly contain myself.
I am holding my breath till the shamlympics is on so that I can NOT watch.

What I really get into is
[Read the article: Baseball's skimming scam]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]watching the games.
All this other shit is to help me zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
This is like an Eastern Seaboard Preference Network in print.
I never watch them either.
What I DID watch was the Swish beating Detoilet last night in extras and the Mariners harpooning the Twinkies.
Now, THAT is interesting stuff.

Maybe this is useful in another way
[Read the article: The creepiest video you will see all day]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Someone ought to try and con the mormon fundie pervs into getting these things so they'd leave their young sexually molested children alone.
No, it wouldn't work as, it's not REALLY about having more children.
It's REALLY about having sex with the ones they have in captivity..
All in all, these things are really straaange.

@ Ken Wolman
[Read the article: Why do women live longer than men?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There was that study which claimed that married men live longer than single men.
However, married men are more willing to die.
I'm single and livin'/lovin' it.

Equality
[Read the article: Losing her religion]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Why is it at all surprising to see preachers, lawyers and hemorrhoids in the same article?
Oh, I know.
They're redundancies.

THIS IS SEXIST BULLSHIT
[Read the article: Should I tell my boyfriend's wife about our affair?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Why is it always that the guy is the "bad guy" and the female is little miss goodie two shoes and innocent?
If she wasn't there to be screwing WITH the guy, he'd be masturbating.
SHE WAS there and screwing with him.
This is typical of the feminazi attitude that it's ALWAYS/ONLY the man.
Nothing was said about rape so, she willingly took her own panties off.
She's just an angry little bitch who wants to get even with someone who merely had an EQUAL part in the sex.
STFU and GROW UP.
