I think I just can't help it, I don't think I'll ever enjoy Mozart. I was trying to reserve judgment, thinking maybe I just hadn't found some Mozart pieces I would like better, but after listening to the pieces mentioned here and a few others, it's just not appealing to me at all. You aren't the on...

u teach? Ugh, yeah, high school biology. These last three weeks I really hate though. My work as a chess instructor will soon become rather 'iffy.' Very cool. I've coached chess before, but like others have said before me, I have all the rules down, its the skill I seem to be lacking in. No matter ...

I'm jealous, I wish my parents had introduced me to classical music when I was young. I'm still trying to expand my culture, I feel like I know so little.

Arrghhh! Metropolis is difficult for me. The manga is merely OK, and the film...ugh...just the idea of having the guy who animated akira do a tezuka film seems completely twisted to me. Not sure the film or manga have much of anything to do with each other. Weird! This and your other illustrations a...
