    That is interesting. The people you meet.

          I hope the excision went well and this is not turning into another continuous health issue.

            I remember that his mother attended all of his concerts throughout the world, well into his late 20s. She watched over him like a hawk.

              Sorta related....

              Before the days of Spotify, etc. I was working with an opthamologist who was almost as much of a classical geek as (most of) us are.

              We were starting an enucleation (one of my LEAST favorite operations), and I said, "Brian, what do you want to listen to today?

              "Handel Concerti Grossi"

              (ahem, I just happened to have that on my iPod)

              "Coming right up!"

              He was shocked.

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
