    The "All You Can Eat" buffet restaurant is one of my favorite places to go to. The only problem is I do feel too full afterwards. I don't eat out much, maybe once or twice a month. What do you say? I say "yommmy!"

    This morning I received an invitation for a duel (not a drinking contest) from a fellow TC member. I have after no hesitation decided to accept your dare for me to listen to Franz Lizst for a whole month. I have set some ground rules for the dare modified from your rather ambiguous post here...

So I am going to start a thread for people here to suggest me to order and I will reply whether our library has it or not. Go wild please. The library has no qualms about ordering 80 disc box...

    This is something I've been planning for about 6 months. I see another similar thread started but mine is a little more like the Saturday Symphonies. I've already got about 10 years planned out (if there is enough interest to keep it going that long). There will be both popular and lesser...
