Work toward the day when fine authentic Screwed conversation will be afforded the same respect given to the haute cuisine of France.

I think we'll be more likely to be classified under 'sauci�rs'...

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (10:30) #2

you know, don't you, that it's all in the wrist...

~riette Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (12:38) #3

ha-ha! I know! Rhythm is important too though...

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (12:50) #4

Speed, at times, can compensate for rhythm but there is no replacing endurance (assuming, of course, that repetition is a form of endurance)

~PT Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (14:33) #5

Repetition is rhythm.

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (18:43) #6

it can be...it can be arhythmic as well...

~riette Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (03:21) #7

Like variations on a theme.

~PT Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (12:47) #8

OK I'll admit it. You lost me. How can anything be repetitive and arhythmic at the same time?

~KitchenManager Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (23:51) #9

do it today, once or twice tomorrow, not at all for a coupla more, ten or twelve times the following day, etcetera... the action is repetitive, but there is no rhythm

~riette Fri, Dec 18, 1998 (00:55) #10

Repetative and arythmic can actually go together - musically speaking.

~PT Fri, Dec 18, 1998 (11:54) #11

OK, I see what you mean. By the way, when I was working EMS, I came across an old lady who's heartbeat had about the same beat as the example wer gave. During our training we all took turns listening to it. She got quite a kick out of all the attention, and we all got a kick out of the heartbeat.

Rapper's heartbeat...

~PT Sat, Dec 19, 1998 (11:20) #13

I thought at the time we should get a musician to write music to it.

~riette Sun, Dec 20, 1998 (01:41) #14

YOU should have. Would've made an interesting addition to your incredible job variety!

~PT Sun, Dec 20, 1998 (16:30) #15

You grant me a talent that I do not posess. I cannot compose music. Maybe I just haven't tried enough.

~riette Mon, Dec 21, 1998 (05:22) #16

Oh, I think you'd be a good composer - you seem very creative in many ways.

~PT Mon, Dec 21, 1998 (15:33) #17

I guess I'll have to try again.

~PT Mon, Dec 21, 1998 (15:34) #18

Thank you for the vote of confidence.

~riette Tue, Dec 22, 1998 (03:47) #19

It's a vote of first hand experience.

~PT Tue, Dec 22, 1998 (10:30) #20

Thanks again, I'll let you know what happens.
