I'd just run away...

No. But since I'm taking the van tonite (and I'm not back until Saturday), I'll need to make sure I've got the right set of keys or the wife and kids will be stranded!
That could have some nasty repercussions... ;^)
What is that ringing in my ears......?
My voice is low enough that except for about the lowest tenor note, I'm perfectly comfortable, and I actually have to go into my head voice (falsetto, or whatever you call it - I've never really learned this stuff!) on the higher notes for a tenor. Alto is almost ALL head voice for me. Which makes me...what? A contralto? I dunno.
I went to a girls' school for awhile in highschool, and that was about my only REAL experience with choir except for a short stint in Germany. Since we had no men, I have a feeling some of the parts we were given were actually tenor rather than alto. In any case, I was surprised at how high the alto went in Messiah!
I'd rather duel with Shelob!
It's about twenty minutes if I take the long way 'round...hopefully that's enough! And there's still the possibility that something is wrong with the car and therefore the battery is getting drained. I'm going out at lunch to check, and getting someone to help me look at it.
Yeah there are some parts which were difficult for me the last time I did a 'sing-in'. But I've noticed that my range has gotten higher over the last few years because of singing along with CDs I have and music we've done at Church. I'm not a 2nd soprano by any stretch of the imagination, but I can do the higher alto parts much easier than the lower ones these days. Again, it's more a function of the volume or projection rather than being able to reach the notes. I noticed I can reach all but the highest notes on "In Dreams" on the FoTR soundtrack and I would not have been able to do a few years ago.

Could be. He's been in some pretty dangerous territory in that "other" forum...
Yeah, he comes here to stock up on lembas and ent draught to strengthen himself for those battles.
I haven't really had the time to scout out the dangerous territory that much, but I realize it will take a lot of courage to begin posting there. I have gleaned that you used to be a warrior there yourself? But swore off to preserve your own sanity? Sounds like a good decision. For me, I don't know if I have enough sanity to begin with to even want to bother....
It's cheaper than air-conditioning.....
Yes, I was wounded in the religious wars. I don't go back there anymore (other than throwing an occasional flame), because I don't like who I am over there. The arguments are pointless and some of the nastiest flame wars on FR.
Like a good Man of Gondor, ksen is able to hold his own without getting into the slimey part. Being a hot tempered dwarf, I'm better off just staying away.
Maybe he was sleeping and Shelob caught him in his skivvies...
Shows profound self awareness. I think you and I are a lot alike.
