Jackie, all I got from this link is a message saying an error occurred in the plug in this page (hence the leaks referred to above?)and then I was whisked on to the next page, which was Bach's Air on a G-string.

But that theme will leak its way through string and brass every single time.
Especially [gasp], Wordwind [choke] [snort]--are you ready?
G-strings.

==========================================================

Bingley, I just tried the link again and it went right to the 40th. But there are other pieces there, as well. Perhaps you could try using the forward or back arrows.

Old version at http://www.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/u/bwross/flower

Modern & bit easier to read at http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/plantanswers/publications/flowers/flowers.html

Both give yellow roses as a decrease of love ...when someone dies, surely love has decreased ? what do think?
My Mother's favorite was yellow roses, she didn't care what they meant she just loved them.

Why do I have the feeling we're dealing with a symbol or code without a universally-accepted meaning?

The Yellow Rose of Texas sure didn't sound like a decrease of love to me. Nosireebob. (Who was this "Bob" character, anyway?)

Wasn't he some mysterious character in Twin Peaks? But then again, weren't they all mysterious? And how could you say "No" to that?



The idiot also known as Capfka ...

how could you say "No" to that?

It's real easy, Cap K. Put your tongue up behind your front teeth, completely closing off the escape route for air in your mouth leaving only the nasal passages and lips open and breathe out with your vocal cords vibrating. After a fraction of a second of this, open your mouth by pulling your tongue back and down and rounding your lips. You can stop any time you want but more than a second of producing sound would be considered excessive.
