There should be a tool to compare your speed to averages in your area

Edit: mines normally between 18-25

Facebook comes to mind.

So now the thief has to know your name? Or even better, a Facebook handle? (since some of us don't use real names)

Just played in the honors credit recital at school. Played the first movement of Weber's Second Concerto (on clarinet of course). Made a few mistakes in the tongued runs but I'd say I blew everyone else out of the water ;D

Good for you! I have dabbled with several instruments, but life is too busy right now. Hope to again some day.

I get it now. In star wars han solo was the reincarnation of ben kenobi.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Ben? This is like seeing your favorite Disney character remove their costume head outside of It's A Small World. Devastating.

Wait.... I thought Ben was Obi Wan.... :thinking:

Yes that's more than enough to host your own server farm.

You'll never use all of that bandwidth girl! Happy downloading!

I don't know anybody who doesn't use their real name on Facebook. And if the thief did know your name, they could at least find your profile pic which may work. A lot of stuff is stolen by friends of friends, so it is a real possibility.

I will say I'm happy to hear you did well. Due to your age and my not wanting to get a spanking from any of the mods, I will refrain from all further comments on your post

That's badass. Congrats! I didn't know you played clarinet. I play tuba. I graduated last year but I was a music theory/composition major.

Hi everyone!

I am Ben's better half. I just wanted to say that I both love your group and hate it at the same time. I hope you can understand that!

I'm glad that he found a group of people as crazy as he is, because lord knows I can't handle it. All he does is live on this site, and I need him to be a real, live human husband again.

So I beg you guys to please kick him out of here (read: ban) as soon as this phone is on sale okay? Thursday, right?

I swear I could be seeing a ship captain on the sly and he wouldn't notice!

Okay guys and dolls, I've said my piece. His sister and myself very much can't wait til the Nexus comes out, and we are iPhone girls.

Bye!

It's shocking to see that Princess Leia has succumbed to the Dark side of the Force.

Haha oh wow.

It made sense at the time! You'd be surprised at how playing clarinet can be so easily misinterpreted

DrexelDragon · Dec 13, 2011

Wow came back just in time! Sweet post Mrs. Han!

Edit: NO. You cannot have Han back, sowwwy
