    Do you play a musical instrument?

    Pretty much, the piccolo is just smaller and more difficult to keep in tune. My band director used to tell us this joke: How do you get two piccolo players to play in tune? ... Shoot one of them! :eek: :D

    Do you play a musical instrument?

    I play the piccolo, flute, piano, guitar, and harmonica. :D I'd love to learn the violin but I just don't have the time...

    Is there a club for us? I love to try new things. I usually only stick with like 1 out of 20, though. Life is great when it's full of variety! :D

    Last seen...

    I saw The Black Dahlia last Friday. Very dark (of course, what would you expect?) and a little difficult to follow, but the acting was rather good. There were a few parts I wish I'd been warned about beforehand. I'm not very squeamish, but I had to close my eyes a couple of times.
