I guess that it's not that uncommon....humans are mammals and they just line up....that's what the pediatrician told me....(my daughter has 3!) So does the pediatrician!

My question is for my littledemon... Have you had the wedding? If so, did you go with the "cast of thousands" on the invites?

When I was still a teenager, I preferred the French impressionists Debussy & Ravel (little did I know then that Ravel was equally a neoclassicist). It wasn't until I reached adulthood before I understood & loved Viennese classicism. As I learned more & more about structure, development of motive, harmonic evolution, & characteristics of form (rondo, variation, etc.), I realized that virtually no music written since Haydn, Mozart & Beethoven lived up to those elements of craft. Plus, to kids taking music lessons from little old ladies whose homes smell like pot roast, the Beethoven myth & the heroic ideal is a powerful pull. A certain type of personality continues to idolize Beethoven into adulthood & beyond. Mozart lovers sometimes say they "grew" out of B. into M., which exemplifies their own personalities & inclinations.

That's cool. I love Beethoven too but don't really get into Mozart. A lot of classical I hear reminds me of the quote of Tony Wilson's quote about jazz that jazz musicians enjoy themselves more than anyone listening to them does. But Beethoven's music has a different effect when I hear it and those that say you grow out of Beethoven to appreciate Mozart sounds like pathetic musical snobs. That's all bull****.

Hmm...well, i look at the list...and there are about 12 people who I am inviting and I'm 98% sure they won't show. People are busy...they work...live a few states away (or in other countries!)...that sort of thing. I'd expect them to send a gift rather than show...and thats ok. I just want them to KNOW i would like them there. Friends of my Dad's, who died last year...that sort of thing. So I'm hoping we can keep it around 75 or so...
