Isn't that ANNOYING?! I absolutely HATE HATE HATE IT when Dr. Borchert
picks up MY stick with MY mpc and MY lig holding on one of MY reeds (be it
a good or not so good one)...and demonstrates for someone (rarely me,
these days), and HE STILL FRICKIN SOUNDS LIKE FRICKIN HIM!!!

And ME? I still sound like frickin me...and worser than that when I tried
HIS mpc. :p

Nothing quite ruins your ego like being shown that there's no one to blame
for your own shortcomings but yourself.

*sigs*

I think I'll go practice now. When I get off of work, that is.
