Was listening in the car driving home from, yes, a weekend getaway. Didn't want to get out for fear that I'd miss something. Apparently not. Love the show.

Yeah, um, Rick...I think you should take that name calling somewhere else.

bethany:

No offense. I'm just curious what was so anger inducing. Probably that I played the Arensky movements out of order, right? Gets me in trouble all the time.
  8:58pm
rick:

Deep apologies. Was teasing but badly done. It was meant with genuine affection.
  9:00pm
yad:

ignorant Dave

Yes, Górecki's Third Symphony. Not deterred by grumblings - it's in good humor. Will return next week to stir things up even more.
