    It's something original, from inside your head?

    Can you write music?

    It sure sounds like it would be annoying!

    It's almost 1 here, and I have to go to bed soon.

    What are your plans for Friday? Will you do something fun or exciting or daring or challenging?

    I too, looked for the sheet music of George Winston pieces, about the same time that you did. Found that none existed, (at least not any that was for sale). So, what I did was that I just listened to it and wrote it down on manuscript paper, so that I could have it to play. Some of his stuff is easy enough though, that if you listen to it a number of times and get it in your head, it's not hard to figure it out without the sheet music.
    Thanks!

    I'm sorry for being so slow here! My wireless Internet connection got incredibly slow. So, I re-started computer and switched to dial-up.

    Have you ever written poetry or the lyrics to a song, shank90?

    Thanks!

    I own every tune he recorded and have them all committed to memory. I think I will check Libraryland to see if there are any fake books.

    I've been checking all over Internet for Yiruma, the composer of shank's piece, the link he posted. Yiruma has his own web site, is on YouTube with various pieces, is in Wikipedia. I'd never heard of him until tonight. I'll have to get out more...

    What I'm trying to do here is to give you an opportunity to express yourself, so that you can feel better about yourself and be potentially more attractive to women because of the way that you feel about yourself and also what you can do.

    Are you interested in trying something that would enable you to do that?

    Thanks!

    I wasn't talking about sports, but thanks for letting us know what your passion is.

    I was wondering if you would like to write a song that's like the music of "River Flows in You" that you could play and to which you could also write the words. I'm giving you a chance to learn how to compose a song - for you, or for you to give to anyone, for that matter.

    Thanks!
