Eddie, this line brought back a memory that I will never forget.

A few years ago a local music store was advertising for another guitar instructor. I applied and got the job. The only other guitar instructor was teaching songs while I was and still am old school and taught music. I taught reading music and eventually learning theory. If a student was doing well I would throw in some fun stuff like a current song as a teaching exercise. The store owner was impressed and in a couple of months I had a lot more students than the other instructor. It turned out that the owner, although much younger than me, was also "old schooled"!

Thanx for the pleasant flashback.

When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"
