opera
Any of you who have slaves that like opera?
My Meowmie just decided to give opera a try. She is playing some opera CDs. When the singer hit the high notes, I want to twitch my ears. Good thing I can sleep through anything. Rusty |

Hi Callisto and Xena,
Your Meowmie must be very clever to be able to sing opera in another language. The CDs Meowmie is listening to are in Italian. She doesn't understand a word of it. Don't know why she listens to that stuff. She has started singing some hymns in the mornings. My Meowmie doesn't sing well. I rather she plays the piano. At least when the piano is not out of tune, it sounds better than her singing. But for some reasons she hasn't touched the piano for ages. I dreaded the day when a piano tuner shows up at the door. Piano tuning is the worst for my ears. Rusty "dsh-diva" wrote in message oups.com... HiHi Rusty!! Owr meowmie sings dat operastuff!

We dont miss it, butted she duz. Callisto Meowmie can sympathize with your meowmie missing her piano. Meomie loves to play the piano since she was a kitten. Before she moved here, she made sure this place is big enough for a piano. In her last compartment, she put the piano in the dining room and the dinner table in the kitchen. The piano tuner told her to get a baby grand. But then there will be little room left to move around in the living room. Meowmie loves to have a grand piano but she doesn't have the toona for it. Said she wishes she bought a Yamaha. The piano she has now may be liddle but can be quite loud and Meowmie is not even a strong piano player. Back when she was taking piano lessons, she used to get complaints from the neighbours as she often practised for hours. Good thing I wasn't around then. Scales are not my cup of catnip. Rusty |

opera
My patroness says that I'm a castrato, and that's why I still squeek in
a kitten-soprano. She, on the other paw, carries a little purse that says "D is for Diva..." and feels upset when people think she just means "a woman with attitude" and not "a female singer with attitude". She doesn't really qualify as a diva, though, since she's an alto and rarely sings solos. Attitude, however - that she does have... Our house was advertized as having a "grand piano sized living room", but we've only got an electronic keyboard over in the corner, and it only gets used when she needs to work on the music her choir is singing. Ever heard the alto part - alone - of a piece of late-20th-century choral music? My advice is to run and hide under the furthest bed... -- Montgomery Gawain FitzThomas (who has been known to play the piano himself, if she forgets to close the cover over the keyboard...) |

Meowmie just spent a bundle of toonaz at TED for me, and I still have to go back for shots. She said my TED bills are bigger than her medical bills. Said unlike me, she has never have any tests on her kidneys and liver. I already have them twice. I told her I am older than she is, and unlike her, I never have a bone density scan. So there.
