Actually I'm not Bach, but it was a nice typo, so I left it. I absolutely love

the Brandenburg concertos. I worked at summer camp for a number of years. My

favourite way to wake up sleepy campers was to play the Brandenburg concerto

number 6 (BVW 971) very loudly . . . . made them jump every time =)

I've also recently discovered his Cello suites. I first heard Yo Yo Ma playing

them, but I settled on a wonderful Hungarian Cellist. It wasn't as good as Ma's

work, but it was $20 cheaper! Ahhhhhhhhh ....

Anyway, I'm not here to discuss music with a bunch of deaf people, God knows

I'll be deaf soon enough ... what I wanted to say was that I did make it back

before surgery like I wanted to. So I just want to say, here I go away again!

As I mentioned before, Surgery is on Weds. (thanks for all the fan mail so far,

honestly I feel more popular than Elvis!). Tomorrow afternoon is the briefing.

I've stopped my NF2 mailings for now .... I really don't want to come back in

7-10 days (remember that scene from My Girl about 7-10 days?), and find the ol'

mail server choked with HUNDREDS of posts -- my ISP won't like it =) I'll

likely be home until Wed. morning ... no idea what time OR is yet.

Thanks to everybody who has given me advice, etc ... I shaved my head last

night =) There is a crewbie who lives in Edmonton, and I gave you my friend's

email address. She's gonna kill me when she opens her mailbox Thurs. morning

and finds 50 messages waiting .... she's a doctor, so it's OK.

I don't know what I plan to do after surgery, get a tatoo, yes, but other than

that ... I'll just have to see how things go. I'll attempt to send a report as

soon as I can get online. I know a student computer lab in the UofA hospital,

and normally I look enough like a student that I can just sneak in; I have a

feeling that won't be applicable this time =)

Well, farewell friends! I know it is still " only Monday, " but the next few days

are likely to be a blur ... (whooohooooo, yeah blur, but not that kind)

Salut,

Mozart was pretty cool too, P.D. (Pre deafness)
