I've known for years that you're charming, witty, and intelligent, k. Nice to learn that you're devastatingly handsome, as well. All French hornists are--each and every one of us. Listen to that part of you that misses the horn. I came back to playing a decade after leaving music school. One of the best moves I ever made. I earn enough every a year to pay for a new toy or two (one musical=two lenses), my hair's stopped turning grey, and traffic lights turn green whenever I approach.
