I wish I could play the piano as well. I really admire people who can. I think if I could play, I would write songs as well. I have no musical talent whatsoever. My brother played the guitar. But that is about the extent of the talent in my family.

You are very educated in the area of politics. You should not feel bad about voting for Bush. An educated vote is what matters. My parents voted for him as well. They fall into that upper middle class income bracket. I honestly can say, that I can understand why people who work hard for their money, don't want to throw it away on social programs that they don't support. But then as individuals, we can't always pick and choose where our taxes go.

If Regina would dismiss you for voting for Bush, then she is not worth your time.

Gee, now you made me feel even worse for not being able to play it. It would've impressed you had I been a pianist, but nope. Instead I'm just a boob with a piano he can't play.

I do a real crummy version of "Used To Be A Sweet Boy" on it. I can't really claim I learned the song because mine is so...different. hahaha But I like pretending it sounds good! I do sing it too. But I'm a real bad singer. You wouldn't wanna hear. That is what I do when I'm alone and behind heavily soundproofed walls.
