Thanks !

Connical

I just read yet another rant on the other 500 lb gorilla site.
This one was generated by a lot of the regulars and high post
count members. It seems to me, that they could learn a thing
or two from the members here. I just want to say THANKS !

I know I'm no great resource, or the most interesting poster.
But I have never felt any of the nastiness in peoples replies or
comments to either myself or other members here. I believe this
is due to the staff and regulars here. It all rolls down hill.

Keep up the good work ! You are appreciated !
And thanks for putting up with me !

Thanks! It's hard to control a site once it gets to a certain size. But thanks for the kudos. I just hope that the Woodwind Forum can continue to both be value add and a friendly place to ask questions and talk about music performance.

Hardly a week goes by where I don't quote someone from this forum. And my peeps know to come here with questions or to get some good pointers to Internet references.
 
Jim, I think you might be too old to use the term "peeps". Unless you're referring to the marshmallow thingies coated with sugar.

Interesting you would say that. Willie Wilks, black exchange student to my vanilla high school, taught me that term (and others) in the '70s. He played a mean trombone too.

"Shucky duckie, quack, quack" - from Quincy Jones' "Cool Joe, Mean Joe".

FWIW, most of my act is an act to try to be a little folksy. It sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. I feel I'm more easygoing online than in "real" life.

Interestingly enough.

Anyhow, as Jim, Ed and I have said, our main purpose is to share our brains. In my case, if I can contribute to making your world a better place by offering up some woodwind trivia, that makes me happy. If you think I contribute to making the WF a better place, that makes me happy.

Stephen,

Thanks for the compliment. I basically concur with what Jim and Pete said. Although there is a certain horror associated with the peeps carnage. :emoji_relaxed:
 
Connical,
