How many CDs / Records do you own?

Is there an MFSL of any of the Elvis Costello albums?

Why do public these days always flock to the worser player (piano)
I just looked this guy up on YouTube, and.... wow. His performances are so ho-hum. No variety whatsoever. "Bang Bang" certainly is accurate - I played like that when I was 10.- goldenratiophi

multiplication before addition
Order of operations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Quote: The order in which the unary operator − (usually read "minus") acts is often problematical. In written or printed mathematics, − 3^2 = − (3^2) = − 9, but in some applications and programming languages, notably the application...- goldenratiophi
