Oh dear. I hate it when the phone rings no matter who is on the other end.Don't sit next to two women anywhere except when it's unavoidable:jibber jabber being their raison d'etre. Unfortunately, it's not even possible to avoid senseless chatter from them even at a distance these days. Every few weeks I get my ear bent from one of them in New York and a couple of days ago another telephoned with the wonderful news that she can now get a cheap rate form the Swiss telephone service and will be calling me once a month henceforth. Don't you just love modern technology ?

Well when they are playing a musical instrument as brilliantly as they often do, or singing divinely, I would never complain, but jibber jabber all to often takes precedence.
I think Neely might detect a slight note of sarcasm.

Yep, reminds me of the brilliant Harry Enfield sketch:Well when they are playing a musical instrument as brilliantly as they often do, or singing divinely, I would never complain, but jibber jabber all to often takes precedence.

But what if there's a woman who really doesn't process information well and really isn't hard core?
Well then, that leads on to the text tip:
Tip 217 - Women (and sometimes men) know your limits.
But what about Yu-Na Kim? Was that her name? The sky has been the limit, only she needed that coach because she was shy.
Also, if Yu-Na is gentle on the ice, is that a limitation?

Tip 217: Don't assume that raising your voice has the same effect as a simultaneous translation of your language into someone else's.
It is embarassing to be with people who do this.
Tip #218 - Don't derail a lighthearted thread.
As I've had a habit of doing lately, with all of my sincerely deep questioning and thinking, almost like the woman in that "limitations" video. The only difference between her and me is that I don't know all the answers.
None of us know the answers.
Oh please ignore me, please forgive me! I don't know why I spontaneously write things here, and they come out different than I mean it. I don't intend to mess up your thread or the forum.

No, she needed the coach because he was a former champion skater whose expertise was essential to her development, in exactly the same way that Yuja Wang needed Gary Graffman, a former famous concert pianist, to develop her skills. Orientals know that the best education in a particular sphere is in the West but, when they have learned it, they will eventually use it to overtake the West.

Relax, you haven't messed anything up.
Tip 219 - Don't work with teenagers.
Jesus, what a day! Headache factory.
Ah, those were the days.
