RE: How old are you?

I will be seventy-five in August. When I was six years old my older sister, then twelve, got an LP of Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto for her birthday. We had a little all in one box record player the manufacturer laughingly call a HiFi. When I heard the Tchaikovsky concerto something clicked in me. It was the most beautiful exciting thing I had ever heard. I was the weird kid who listened to classical as a teenager when all my friends listened to rock or country. When I was in my twenties my tastes expanded to include almost all music. Nowadays jazz is my favorite, but I also enjoy almost all music except rap and contemporary pop which employs Auto Tune.
I dream of an America where a chicken can cross the road without having it's motives questioned.
