Re: Wacky Wednesday Poll
2) People who in reality have just *a little* knowledge in a subject area but then assume they are experts. Example, this groom hired my quartet to played for his wedding. Claims to be "HUGE" lover of classical music, said he's studied it in college. Then when requesting songs couldn't pronounce the name of one of the top 5 major composers in the history of music (it's not that hard of a name).
3) LOL well..since I'm currently reading 3 different books I have a wide variety. One of them goes over the top and has pictures of flowers hanging off the other side. My favorite one wraps around the inside of the book and has a clasp on the outside (this clasp happens to be a music related one).
(2) (a) Women who "hover" and don't clean up the overspray. (b) Poor proofreading.
(3) The one I got from The Book Grocer when I bought a book there.
What do you consider the top 5 @sonore32 , out of curiosity? I could make a case for a bunch of them I think. I'm assuming you play strings since weddings rarely request woodwind quartets...what's your instrument?
2. So many! Noisy chewers is the one that drove me nuts today.
3. A Harry Potter bookmark

Well the specific composer I was referring to was Hayden (pronounced by this groom as Hay-den (Hay as in what you feed to horses)).
If I actually had to pick the top 5 I don't think I could because it is so variable depending on what you are ranking them ask (personal favorite, compositional output, reception history) etc... But if i had to give a generic ranking it would be something like (and yes i know there are more than 5 listed below)
Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms, Hayden, Handel, Shostakovich, Wagner....
And yes I actually play the viola (and sometimes violin but I don't like to admit that). I'm working on my Doctorate in viola performance
2. When people say "irregardless". I just can't.
3. My library receipt.
