Talking Who else is wasting time here?

I have a mid term tonight that I should be reviewing for, but its on classical music, so yawn. So I am finding reasons to avoid studying. Hence I am here.

I see a lot of other people online, who else is screwing around when they should be doing something else??

I repeat this is not wasting time. I am gathering wisdom, knowledge and grammar corrections from my fellow Benz owners.

What you're covering is the pre-romantic periods. Medieval, Rennaisance, Baroque, and classical. Just google Medieval period, music. Rennaisance period, music.

1) Figure out the basic styles

2) Figure out the associated composers

3) Figure out some pieces typical of the era

4) Recognize the pieces when played to you

All this is elementary stuff you would know if you watched Little Einsteins.

Surfing to combat depression...

...best friend picked up an '03 Boxster and got a great deal! Really happy for him, though meanwhile I await results of my 93 W124 repairs which require a hose (at least), head gasket, and who knows what else. After all of that, there is still that ailing tranny to contend with.

(sigh)...

You need to clarify that statement.

Do you feel as if you are a poop?

Or, OTOH...

Do you feel like having poop?

Explain yourself Sir.

From what I saw in another one of your posts, you have a great family and great kid(s).

The Boxster can't compare to what you have.

I drive a 1991 300CE, while one of my frinds just bought a new SL55. He is single, however.

I have 4 wonderful (most of the time ) kids. Three are in college (which keeps me poor).

I wouldn't trade my family for all the SL55 in the world!

BTW, hope that your repairs turn out to be inexpensive!
