Day went reasonably well, thanks. I had an appointment with the Sleep Dr. at 8 this morning to go over the results of last week's sleep study. We're changing the CPAP apparatus I'm using - should sleep better with the new equipment.
Work was uneventful - I'll be going in for 4 or 5 hours tomorrow - the Katzenjammer Kids are still running amok. :)

FREEDOM ISNT FREE!
It Is Purchased With The Blood Of Patriots!
Freedom Isnt Free
By DDR Kelly Strong USCG (ret)
I watched the flag pass by one day, It fluttered in the breeze. A young Marine saluted it, And then he stood at ease. I looked at him in uniform So young, so tall, so proud, With hair cut square and eyes alert Hed stand out in any crowd.
Eternal Father, Strong to Save (Click)
I thought how many men like him Had fallen through the years. How many died on foreign soil How many mothers tears? How many pilots planes shot down? How many died at sea How many foxholes were soldiers graves? No, freedom isnt free.
Taps (Click)
I heard the sound of Taps one night, When everything was still, I listened to the bugler play And felt a sudden chill. I wondered just how many times That Taps had meant Amen, When a flag had covered a coffin. Of a brother or a friend.
I thought of all the children, Of the mothers and the wives, Of fathers, sons and husbands With interrupted lives, I thought about a graveyard At the bottom of the sea Of unmarked graves in Arlington, No, freedom isnt free.
God Of Our Fathers (Click)
Many Thanks To ExTexasRedhead For Finding This Poem!

There has always been a bit of confusion about the two piano concertos of
Frederic Chopin. The Piano Concerto #2 was written first, and the Piano Concerto #1 was written a year later. The premiere of the Piano Concerto #2 was a red letter day for Fred. It was 29 December 1829, and the 19 year old Chopin performed at the Warsaw Merchants Club, giving the world his first truly mature masterpiece and an evergreen for the concert hall.
His orchestral accompaniment is rather clunky, so its a weak start. Sonata format has the orchestra first play both subjects of the exposition while the pianist sits and waits for his entrance. The exposition repeat is handled by piano and orchestra. Then comes development and recapitulation, followed by a coda.
The pianist is Arthur Rubinstein, who was 88 years old at time of this concert and almost blind. What phrasing! This performance uses the short ending.
Chopin: Piano Concerto #2 in F minor, Op. 21 (first movement)
The second movement is a dreamy slow movement in ternary (A-B-A) format where the piano becomes an opera singer.
(second movement)
The finale is a mazurka of sorts. The coda is a technical challenge, requiring a supple right wrist, something I did not possess as a teenager. At 9:09 the horn sounds, and its off to the races!
(third movement)
