 ML>> choice, and he ended up being director of admissions at my high
 ML>> school.
 NB>> One could almost say that nothing worked out there...  ;)  Was your
 NB>> test score seen as the protest it was...?  (even without the rest of
 NB>> the class?)
 ML> It was seen as a prank. The head of the science department just
 ML> sort of shook my head at me, as I'd gotten an 800 on the
 ML> chemistry board just recently.

Plus, statistically, even if you had been that poor at the subject, you
would have gotten at least a few answers right, just by chance... :)

 NB>> later in the service..  totally exposed both times, too... not while
 NB>> people were singing, which covers up a multitude...  ;)  Brain
 NB>> glitches...  wonder if those are related to the migraine/epilepsy
 NB>> patterns...? 
 ML> Woo - an unpretty situation, hope you got out of it without
 ML> too many people notice. 

No one commented afterwards, anyway...  :)  The other pianists are
generally rather understanding... having had their own glitches at
times..  ;)

 ML> Luise Vosgerchian was the piano soloist in a Mozart concerto
 ML> and got totally balled up in the expo, having to improvise
 ML> for several bars; so in the expo repeat she did the exact
 ML> same thing, and I would suspect in the recap as well. Very
 ML> few noticed anything at all - except for her students, to
 ML> whom she had earlier analyzed that same piece in class.

Always someone that knows the piece intimately... and will spot the
least deviation... ;)   Of course, she could always say she was getting
into the spirit of the times, and doing it as Mozart might have done
it... (G)

 ML> There is no his own. It's either mine or mine as a result of
 ML> my father's having given it all to me for the use and benefit
 ML> of Jonathan and me. Speaking of, there have been altercations
 ML> across the street from the house, and so there was a meeting
 ML> regarding safety with a representative from the local
 ML> constabulary, and guess what happened shortly after? He just got
 ML> a note (he says - it makes totally no sense to me) from the motor
 ML> vehicle department saying that his driver's license will be
 ML> suspended for suspected mental illness unless he can get a
 ML> witness with a Maryland licence to vouch for his sanity, whatever

I'd ask to read it.  See what it really says.  And if that's true, one
wonders what he might have said at said meeting to provoke that sort of
response from the DMV... or if it were just some bizarre coincidence...

 ML> good that will do. I of course cannot get involved, not having
 ML> anything to do with the Maryland motor vehicle department or with
 ML> any kind of determination of his mental health.

Quite true.  Another odd situation.
