It's an acquired taste for most people, myself included, but once you're hooked, well, you're hooked! TJ, I'd love it if we could meet when you come back to Texas!emmapeelDallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045502725282481075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19031373.post-89768197916054701832009-03-20T19:17:00.000-05:002009-03-20T19:17:00.000-05:00Like TJ I've never seen an opera in person.

I would watch and try to figure out what the big deal was. I liked musicals but could never get "into" operas although I could appreciate the writing, composition, and musical execution.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861482393432330011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19031373.post-29211455929049501162009-03-20T06:56:00.000-05:002009-03-20T06:56:00.000-05:00I have never seen a opera.

We do have a simple Whiting that host ballets and others, I seen Riverdance twice there.<BR/>But we are filled with expressways and interstates! Churches and Bars..and a very small handful of restruants that are exciting enough.<BR/>Can't wait to get back to Texas this winter...who knows maybe we can meet?<BR/>Have a great day!<BR/>TJTJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00510301975315691761noreply@blogger.com
