You mentioned Mozart (yeah I have played several of his compositions) so I wondered if you've seen the movie "Amadeus?" Well, when that movie was released and popular, I had many people come up to me and tell me that I reminded them exactly of actor Tom Hulce's performance of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. So, if you've seen the movie, I guess you've met me! Ha!
(Humor aside -- if you haven't seen the movie, I recommend it. I find it a great film!)

What's funnier is that most of those people who told me I was like actor Hulce's "Amadeus" performance? They did not intend it to be a wonderful compliment as your take on it all. They meant it more that I was annoying. But I thank you for finding Hulce sexy!
(And I liked Hulce's performance, too -- I found the same qualities in him that you did.)
God i didnt find him annoying in the least. In fact, i liked his personality a lot. He sort of reminded me of me a little. Very playful and harmless. I thought he was not only delightful, but VERY sexy. Hulces performance was genious in my opinion. Very impressive. I wish i could hear you play the piano. I bet you rock. ;))
A granfalloon, in the fictional religion of Bokononism (created by Kurt Vonnegut in his 1963 novel Cat's Cradle), is defined as a "false karass". That is, it is a group of people who affect a shared identity or purpose, but whose mutual association is meaningless.[vague]
Charles J. Shields's 2011 And So It Goes: Kurt Vonnegut: A Life quotes his subject thusly:
[A] granfalloon is a proud and meaningless collection of human beings...
and cites Hoosiers as "one of [Vonnegut's] favorite examples."
Just had that happen a couple of weeks ago, someone rear-ended me on the Capital Beltway. While the other driver was at fault it was just a "love tap" so I moved on. No damage, not even scuffed paint on my bumper and I wasn't injured. But when you do that you do put yourself at risk from insurance fraud so it's probably best to report it as a hit-and-run, even go so far as to get the license # of the other vehicle if you can.
Id like to show this post to my son. He thinks im the only person on the planet who moves on if there is no damage. I see his point and yours on the insurance fraud, but its such a hassle when there is no damage or injury to do all the other stuff you have to do when you get in a wreck.
Are you sure you and my son havent been talking cause you sound just like him. lol Seriously, you both make alot of sense and if i listen to you in the future, ill probably save alot of headache and money too. THanks SpunkySenior. ;))
