…clarinet beats oboe.”
I love it when Julie Leung and Lisa Williams blog their kid stories. So, even though my daughter Amity is already grown-up and has a Ph.D., I asked her permission to blog her clarinet-oboe comparison.
Then I forgot to blog it until today, when she told me about her trip home from a recent conference:
“Yesterday, I made one of the classic blunders. I picked out a very sad book to read on the plane, so that all the way from Minneapolis to Boston I was trying to cry very unobtrusively.”
At least she didn’t start a land war in Asia….
Postscript: The NY Times today has a listing of top movie quotes. And not one quote from The Princess Bride is included????
Inconceivable!
