...since they object to the word "gay"..so here are the changes:

OK.....This is the way we must change things,and bow to the Christian
Right:

1. Gioconda act four end "Vo farmi piu homosexualia."

2. Wotan to Hunding at end act 2 Walkure:

"Homosexual..Homosexual..'(or he could say "Fag..Fag..because it fits
the music better.)

3. Merry Christmas: "Don we now our homosexual
apparel...falalalalalalalala."

4. The artistry of the late Marvin Homosexual.

5. I would love to visit homosexual Parieee ...Parieee est toujours
tres homosexual.

6. In Showboat I love the role of Homosexualord Ravenal.

7. ...'And I feel so homosexual in a melancholy way...."

8. I love that French tenor in the RCA Manon, Andre Lehomosexual.

9. I am nuts for the piano concerti of Serhomosexual Rachmaninoff

I still think it trips off the tongue much better in all of the
above to say "Queer." Love Charlie..a nice guy and not a goy.

Let me tell you that in 10 plus years on various forums, I have
learned more than I could have ever dreamed...as follows:

1. I learned that one could make wonderful acquaintances and even life-
time friends just by expressing opinions ans howing a certain
"style."(e g. One of my dearest Internet friends said she wanted to
meet the guy who "wrote like that"..as opposed to a few who would say,
"I want to murder the guy who wrote like that.)

2. I learned that sometimes you review a singer and the singer reads
what you wrote and sometimes the singer wonders "Who is this guy who
hates me."

3. I became acquainted with some leading artists and developed an
"Internet friendship" with them...Bumbry is one example.

4. I realized that so many knowledgeable people "hear differently" and
must be respected no matter how differently they "hear" what you think
you hear.

5. I have been amazed at the material available...how one can type and
search and instantly find needed info....Like a kind of "supernatural
experience."

I innocently wrote a post on a topic that is often discussed
(vehemently at times) and look what happens..mamma Mia.....It brought
out some total nutcase....I guess I have to limit my articles to such
topics as "Do you like opera?" CH

One would think that those "mature' members of the newest Opera
group known as Ancullo, would totally ignore us..since they hated
us..but NOOOOOOOOOO.They cannot resist..especially the idiot Bollman
and the evil Nazi Mark..Why are they here? Why can't they stay in
their own pigpen?? I guess it proves once again what they are and what
they have been..and yet they would be the first to complain about
us..we are the good guys..we always were...When I ever douibted it...I
realized that they represented the scum of society...and they deserve
only contempt..I still am hoping that they do not have any
offspring....They would be a terrible influence on the next
generation..ch

GORGEOUS!!! What a beautiful work..Scotto and Mauro (who could be
uneven but is superb here0 in this love scene are magnificent..and
that MUSIC........
A man by the name of Conrad Dryden sent me his book on Zandonai..he
researched him to a great extent.
I have other Zandonai works but have not listened..Francesca is so
beautiful...Who could do it today????
Soviero and Zeani would have excelled in it..Kabaiwanska and Olivero
are superb as is Scotto...CH

-This would've been a Quintet of them, had I found Tucker's and
Carreras' renditions, as intended.

A medical student was in the morgue one day after classes, getting a
little practice in before the final exams. He went over to a table
where
a body was lying face down. He removed the sheet over the body and to
his surprise he found a cork in the corpse's rectum.

Figuring this was somewhat unusual, he pulled the cork out, and to
his
utter amazement, sounds of music pealed forth: Phrases of Siegfried,
of
all things!

The student became even more astounded, and placed the cork back in
the
rectum.

.....but he is not nice enough....although there is a slight
resemblance...slight????? ch

This post is specifically for dear Markie, who could never ever enjoy
the friendship of any of the singers listed below..in fact he could
not ever enjoy the friendship of any decent person....as evidenced by
his constant disrespecting others...I just wanted to make another
list...the one of all the singers I have been close with..fairly
close..or dear friends....so he can start telling me all bout the
royalties and the usual crap..So here they are:...some no longer with
us.
