Judgements for Experience.
Nicholas Browning said:
This reminds me of a phrase I once heard, goes somethin\' like this. \"A fool learns from his own mistakes, but a wise man learns from the mistakes of the fool\". I disagree with this statement, because as your poem states - experience must be undergone personally before it can be learned. Even the wise man screws up a time or two. You tell em\' Finch.

Music Acrostic.

Andy,
Love your Acrostic. Very creative, indeed!
The video you chose is pure bliss! I just finished listening to it. What a treat!
Youβve reminded me to take out the recording I have of La Cavalleria Rusticana and take the time to listen to it...especially after a very difficult day such as today!
Thank you for sharing.
My love to Joyce and to you!

THANKS UNCLE ANDY - We are so fortunate to have 24/7 access to the *Worlds most Beautiful Music* BBC 3 - Classic FM & infinite CDs ! Its 10:30 pm Thursday in Honolulu we have gone back in time and arrived here before we left ! TEMPUS FUGIT in reverse ! We found your Music very soothing after a day in the Sun (30C = 86F). Please check *BLUE HAWAII* and enjoy some equally sophorific music but in a completely diferent genre. I (BRIAN) have played the Hawaiian Guitar and it is a very trilling experience indeed. We love your very clever ACROSTIC !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & JOYCE

I\'ve played on this song many times (with different singers). The solo break around the middle is still a wonderful 8 bars to play. Jim Croce is no longer with us but lives on in his work ~ enjoy Andy.
Ex animo, Alan

THANKS UNCLE ANDY ~ for caring & sharing ! The Song (we have shared many Love Songs in the past 15 months) and the Poem are very apposite to our situation at present ! WE especially love the final five lines !
As we dream
Dream of our life
Our life that is not there
But is the one for which we aim
And will one day be ours !
Our life together as Husband & Wife will begin in 2020 ~ and with everyones support (including MPS !) we will have a FAMILY and we will live happily ever after ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace to You & Joyce

I wish I had not had so much free time in 1066 - things may have turned out differently if I had not turned up!
