It's great to see you drop by the homestead this morning and tell us about your newfound employment. I know how disappointed you were when the Barnes & Noble thing didn't come thru for you ... :) Your new project with kids and music sounds right up your alley.

Funny how the use-it-or-lose-it principle slips up on us, whether it's the voice or, in my case, shooting a basketball. I got away from the game when I was about 40, probably after discovering that there comes a point when white men really, really can't jump. Several years ago, after a long absence from the court, I decided to try my hand a shooting a basketball and was shocked that I couldn't hit the backboard, much less the basket. But as you're discovering, with a little practice I was able to regain the shooting touch. If I could only rebound, dribble and slam-dunk the ball again, I could get back in the game here at almost 60. Oh well, at least the typing fingers are still working as well as ever.

Good luck with your scales and coaching efforts.
