A few years ago when my hometown passed a millage increase so Ozark Public Schools could build a performing arts center, I was asked to consult on the purchase of a piano worthy of our amazing new state-of-the-art facility.
Sometimes I look back on people I've been and wonder: What the heck? Joan Didion said, "I have already lost touch with a couple of people I used to be," but also advised we keep on nodding terms with them, lest they "turn up unannounced and surprise us."
