Nice. I have a Mozart. You can get a PDF of a piano off of the company's website. It's still a ripoff, though.

Who else would make a good action figure? What accessories would they come with?

Puccini and Rossini. Just.... because. Harvested Sorrow Meh, I find it hard to eat something that tastes utterly vile for the sake of having it grow on me. I can only choke down vegetables in small amounts although some (corn and potatoes) are pretty good when prepared properly. If you allready find it vile, thats a different story.

Yes, that is a problem. I've always been like that. I can eat it cooked (i.e. in soup form), though, so that's a start. Made a soup recently with onion, broccoli (SP?), cabbage, corn, and carrots. heh It also had a combination of lean beef/pork, though, to make sure it was edible. >_>;;
On another note, since this IS the chatterbox thread...
My aunt is currently in the Pacific Chorale, and at some point (back in the '70s I believe) a chorale she was in was touring through Switzerland, and they Rachmaninoff's grandson and some of them got see Rachmaninoff's former home. She was able to touch the piano that he composed his 2nd piano concerto on. 3nodding
Proceed to being jealous, now. >_>;;; xd

Senar? Sorry, it doesn't ring a bell. Explain what you mean and I can probably give an answer.

I'm not sure where exactly in Switzerland she went. Rachmaninoff had a lakeside villa there, and he named the place [and the lake] Senar, which is an amalgam of the names of he and his wife.
I was wondering if this was where she went, because that would be the most awesome place one could go. I don't know too much about the place myself.
I wonder if his five story house in New York is still there.
I've never actually seen what any of his old places look like. I should look for a lengthy biography- I'm sure there are some around.

I'd have to ask her, I don't recall, and I don't believe she mentioned the name of the place. It may have been, because the story was the orchestra they were touring with was performing some of his works, so his grandson came to see it, and wanted to talk to the conductor. He approached them while they were eating breakfast and they had a hard time getting the conductor out of bed, as he was hung over (apparently), but they convinced with him "LISTEN, it's RACHMANINOFF'S GRANDSON"...at which point he offered to take the conductor to the house to discusss some of the pieces, and offered for the ones there to come along for a tour. Apparently he offered to let her play that said concerto on the piano, however, she doesn't know how to play the piano so she simply ran her hands over the keys. No matter where it was, though...that would rule.
