I am enjoying as much as it possible - my beloved "Beatles" music
as it is going around again - I have not seen the DVD of the movie Across the Universe but have seen bits of it on youtube yet I bought the DVD online, the music isn't the Beatles, but it is very good. this is atiny film with music w/ artwork done by my friend from flickr who lives in Austrailia, her online name is webgrrl, the Aussie's are very original and unique... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBLsDU0x4Ok also I enjoy listening to podcasts online - I am taking a time out from reading about illness it is abit annoying after having researched many things for my good friends. and got a surprise call from my great friend and Obama endorser in the land of moline, an ilse off the coast of missispieland... g'nite!

Okay I'm not reading much until I get my new glasses. The text is too small! But... I've been humming a Bach Fuge I started yesterday. It's kinda hard humming in the different parts so I think one and hum the other.

My wife is a classical pianist and practices for an hour or more each day. I sometimes request that she play certain favorites of mine. During the summer time in the evening our neighbors make it a point to stroll past our house they can hear her play.
AS far as reading is concerned I seldom read for pleasure. I get Nature and Science every week reading them take time. I also get EOS (a Geophisical Newspaper), Scientific American and a few others I don't remember. I just finished Al Gore's An Uncertain Truth which I thought was pretty bad. I am now reading Bjorn Longborg's Cool It but am not very far into it. It will turn out to be better than Gore's book. I also read poetry. All the best, Lloyd |

I have not met many patients who weren't brilliant, the forum is very
intellectual, although kind as well I spend time reading poetry - writing poetry - mainly for fun -to me it's creative journalling. I kept a dairy as a child, and when I dream -sometimes I write them down as well, I enjoy quotes... dear Lloyd, you have a caring wife - so lovely that she plays music for you... dear john, you are a music lover as well -very beautiful - I found Bach Fuge on youtube - a harpist http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCaniZpghFE this is beautiful as well ... link to awesome http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipzR9bhei_o one of my personal favorite classical music is - clair de lune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pA8BmJ4j68

"Claire de Lune" is one of my favorites as well. I like the whole Bergmasque Suite, which has some really nice pieces in it like the Passepied. Debussy's music is truly wonderful, and as he matured, he explored harmonies that were unheard of in his time. One of his later pieces that I love is his "Jardin sur la pluis" He evokes that feeling of a summer afternoon thundershower with wind and lightning. At the end the piece becomes bright and happy like the sun has come out. The Bach fuge I'm working on is not one of the more common ones. This is from his collection of Fantasies and Fuges for keyboard. I figured that if I work on something less common it would be more difficult for others to tell if I make any mistakes.  John |
