Only 51 posts till I hit 3000.
Don't ask me anything, otherwise I will be compelled to answer. And then I will be mired in the dread THREE THOUSAND CLUB! :cry:

15. ?
It's right above the subject window when you're posting.


Oh, that's right. You're a DRUMMER. I will speak more slowly in the future.

19. yeah I am great on picking up on emotional stuff
(do that for a living)

but my space relations ( which is why I am not an architect or engineer) and awareness of technological matters are quite poor. i.e. I'm clueless!

20. Isn't drumming all about spacial relationships?
Let me move your hi-hat one inch backward, your floor tom one inch to the right, and I will also adjust the angle at which your cymbals are positioned.

I think you'll find quite soon enough that you are quite attached to spacial relationships!

26. oops I meant spatial relationships dude
Yeah I guess that doesn't quite fit

I do have math skills and music skills ( which are said to be related neurologically) but I am terrible at putting mechanical things together.. As far as the drums go, I have always said that if you can dance, you can play the drums! My teacher says that I am too intellectual about it, and I do best when I just "feel it" and that is an interesting disconnect... in drumming. He says I am getting a lot better though, I have been taking lessons for about a year.

30. you can dance if you wanna, you can leave your ? behind
how does that go? some 80s band

sorry

seriously, I would like to hear what you play... maybe we can trade some MP3s or something. Although I will have to get advice here at home about how to send such things.

Prior to taking lessons I used to be told that I played "weird" but for some of my alt friends that was a good thing. The friend who said that was in a band called Morphic Resonance Trio, which might explain why he liked those who played somewhat unconventionally.

31. You can leave your FRIENDS behind.
'Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance, well they're no friends of mine.

I truly do destest you (but only a little) for putting all these horrible songs in my head.

38. I thought it was friends but I was afraid to misquote
with all the people around here who seem to know every lyric from every song known to man... for some reason that song just popped into my head. Sorry. Here's a better one... All that glitters...


promise (well maybe) not to quote any from your list.... ;)

13. No, they are birdies.
Olive is named Olive because she is small and green, and looks like an olive.

Logos can talk (well, she says "hi" a lot), and is named thusly.

21. Logos, from the Greek.
Appropriated by Latin (lingus), and on into English as "language."

24. "Dingbat" is not a subset of "Moderator".
Although the intersection of the two sets is not null.
