Here I am at age 10 on Chicago's "Bozo Show" (widely syndicated through the midwest at the time on cable). The challenge: to toss ping-pong balls into a series of ever-further buckets. The verdict: I suck.
Points to note while watching the video - [1] how bizarrely closely I stand behind the girl (hey, I was nervous, anxious, something.); and, [2] my awkward lunge to grab my prizes and get the hell off the stage the nanosecond after I miss bucket #4.
Oops, I gave away the ending.
Post-Scriptum: This video has been pulled from YouTube as a result of all those people out there posting Colbert-Show clips. So watch it QT instead.
"Turkey in the Straw" (a poultry theme emerges?)
This is my Piano 1 midterm, performed last week for the benefit of my fellow students at the City College of San Francisco.
"Performed", I should say.
The final next month will comprise the playing of two songs, one of them Fur Elise. I've got a pretty damn long way to go (and a short time to get there).
Hey, this ding-dang blog software doesn't let you put in umlauts.
--Für Elise. There you go. It works if you paste it in from Word.

Meow! Cluck!
