Lynn's Comments: I read somewhere that a composer looked at birds perched on wires and saw a musical pattern in the way they positioned themselves. He then set these patterns to music. Anyone know if this is true?

Lynn's Comments: Even with illustrations, some instructions are still really hard to figure out. A year ago, I bought a Toyota Prius C. The dashboard instructions are so complicated that I still don't know how to change the time on the clock! When daylight savings comes around, I mentally add an hour to the time.

Lynn's Comments: This is how I learned to ride a two-wheeled bike. I was 12 before I was allowed to have one. My mother kept saying I wasn’t old enough to have a bike, even though my friends were all pedaling their way to school. If she had only told me that we couldn’t afford one; if she’d been honest with me, I might have understood. To admit that we weren’t able to afford a secondhand bike was such an embarrassment for her that it was many, many years before she told me the truth.
