<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I got the most bizzare phone call =
this
morning. I was totaly asleep, 1:45 AM local time, (Las =
Vegas). I
am awakened by the phone ringing and I wander down the hall to the =
answering
machine to see who could possibly be calling at that hour. =
After the
record tone there is piano music. Good piano music mind you, =
but not
good at 1:45 AM. I'm muling in my head what local =
technician
could be playing this cruel joke, (We just had a PTG meeting). =
When
the music stops it is not at all what I would have =
guessed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some guy I have never heard of =
comes on and
talks about what a great piano player he is and that he is looking =
for a
job. He says he lives in North Carolina, (It would be 4:45 AM =
there),
and is literally auditioning over the phone. I had no desire =
to talk
to the guy so I didn't pick up the phone. He continues on =
to say
that he is "Damn Good" and that if anyone is looking for a piano =
player to
please give him a call. "Even if the answer is no please call
me". At that point I almost picked it up to tell him where to =
stick
his piano but I was really too tired to get into it. A
few thoughts: </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>What
idiot would call</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> at =
1:45 AM,

I would now
