    The mother in-law took up the cello when she retired, has taken lesson for over 10 years now and a couple of years ago joined a senior orchestra. It's pretty cool.

    I took tap dancing when I was about six.

    Took ballroom dancing a couple years later. The teacher also taught us etiquette.

    Practicing pirouettes in class, my foot slipped and I landed hard and not at all gracefully on the floor. Picked myself up and continued across the room. Next day had a hell of a bruise on my ass.

    I love his work. Manet was one of the first artists to make use of the camera as a means of composing a painting for a transitory scene such as this.

    I don't see much evidence of etiquette in some of your posts here in the OT section, Lanny. ;)

    I think it's great that you're taking up ballet in retirement, crandc. I'm not fully retired yet, but am cutting back. I'm spending more time painting these days, something that I never had much time for before.

    I went and saw my grandsons perform at the Portland Youth Philharmonic Christmas concert last night. Really impressive what those kids can do.

    I'm not surprised that you don't see it. Kind of like how it's difficult for me to see art. We all have our weak points.

    This would have been much more effective if you had thrown in a “kind sir” and wished me a good day.
