Video Find of the Day
MAYONNAISE, n. One of the sauces which serve the French in place of a state religion. - Ambrose Bierce, the Devil's Dictionary.
Mr. Bierce unfortunately had no such entry for Polonaise, which I used to think was a Polish secret sauce. (Being Polish, it should be reversed, like Polish logic. Therefore the secret ought to be that it should not be secret.)
Anyway, this looks hard.
Vladimir Horowitz - Chopin Polonaise in A-flat major, Op. 53
About Me
- Dr. Wes Browning
- I have a doctorate in Mathematics from Cornell. I am amused by this. My parents tried to kill me on my 1st birthday. Though I now can't speak it much, and though my parents never could, my first language was Hawaiian, not English. I partially credit an I'iwi for my survival. Hear one on the audio clip at my complete profile. I've been homeless a number of times, for a total of about 4 years. For some of that time I supported myself with the sale of paintings. One of my paintings was chosen for the cover of the premier issue of Real Change, see the links below. Since that first issue in 1994 I have become part of its volunteer editorial committee. I write a regular humor column for the paper, currently titled Adventures in Irony. I serve on the Real Change Board of Directors. I feed the Real Change cat Sid Vicious. Anitra Freeman and I are an item.
