One day, this thread will fade into oblivion; but not today

This post will bring the thread to 51 pages, at least on my browser's view.

Today I celebrate ONE year of restarting piano lessons.WOO-HOO! I bought my teacher a giant piece of cake and sent him off with it, ONE fork and ONE napkin, since he said it would be gone before he got to his next lesson.

Tonight we celebrate with ONE big margarita party!

That was one sweet gesture on your part, CMohr. I bet your teacher was mightily touched.

Thanks, Monica! I've found out over the course of this past year that he has ONE big sweet tooth!

This is one cool example of hand art:

monica, I have ONE problem with this hand art. The black keys should be in groups of TWO and THREE....
Oh wait, I get it! It's the One thread, so there are no twos nor threes. Very clever Monica

I would like to have a hand puppet like that ONE!

I oned one too.

Excellent phONEtic joke P-rex!

I always planned to post my 1000th here, to embarrass Mr SuperHunky by never letting this thread die. I don't know... now that he's been allowed into the SuperSerious Chopin Recital people might take SuperHunky too seriously. Not to mention the recent admiration for his glorious house and piano room. It will all go to his head!

But a quick read of the first page of this thread (if you never have) should fix that tee hee!

1000 post seems like a long way off
But I'll give it a try

You people are evil. all of you. This thread was started in April of 2006. I had actually forgotten all about this for a while but now it is front page news once again!

I don't get any respect around here!

mr_super-hunky - That's not true! I have a "singular respect" for you as I celebrate my 1year and 1 day anniversary of my 1st post!

Hello, and good morning everybody!

I suppose it must be about 1 a.m. for many, but where I am it’s nearly 9!

I was just wondering what this long topic was about and why it was so popular and why I’ve never noticed it before. I’ve only seen it once. There are at least fifty pages I haven’t got time to read every single one.

Anyway, as you may not know, I’ve only posted 1 piece of music on the forum. Now, although twenty people listened to it, not one person left me a note to commiserate. So I withdrew it. I’m really not a very brave one, am I?

So I’m not sure whether to go to the shop today and play on the Grotrian Cabinet (they only have that one Grotrian grand) or just do some work and practice. The problem is we had a friend round last night (just one) and we were having a “piano conversation”. He asked us if we had one particular CD of one particular composer, to which we replied, “no, but we’ll play it”! And so we went on and on until 1 a.m., asking each other about the pieces we knew and playing every single one of them! So I fear I may be a little too tired to play decently at the shop. I’m feeling rather wan.

So I suppose I must go and do something now. I’ve not done one single creative thing yet today, except pour out my coffee.

But before I do go, I’d like to say just one last thing. You know, I’ve been coming here for nearly six weeks now – that’s one and a half months – but I’ve not had so much as one single official welcome from anyone. I've won no prizes and haven't received one "free Grotrian voucher" yet. Although I have had one or two very helpful replies to my various posts.

So what I’ll do is give you all, yes each and every one of you a big welcome and wish you one fantastic day!


Hope I get at least 1 reply!

Let me be the one to reply to your wonderful post Marharishi.
And though it is late.....Welcome to the forums!

Dear Cheryl,

Your kindly post and welcone warm
I value much – it made me swoon
So whon I get my “Free – G chit” *
You may before the Cabinet* sit
And play there while I sweater knit
until I gently cough and say:
“Cheryl please, enough’s enough”
Just one more piece – sone classical stuff –
But cone again, another day”!



· “Free – G chit” = "free Grotrian voucher"
· Cabinet = as in Grotrian Steinweg Cabinet grand piano


PS
Did I cheat here?

I for one thought this thread had finally died.

Maharishi, that was one clever poem.

(I've posted many times in other threads, but this is the 1st time in this one. )
