RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

If it never rained, you would never see a rainbow.

In a symphony orchestra, the even chairs always turn the music.  You see, symphony orchestras often have multiple musicians playing the same instrument.  They are numbered according to competence and longevity; for instance, 1st viola, 2nd viola, 3rd viola, 4th viola, etc.   They are also seated in that order.  Two musicians share music on a single stand.  Get it?  Watch, the next time you're at the symphony.

Three quarters of all the corn in the world is grown in the USA.  It may be our most valuable asset.

Tea.  The most often served drink in the world.  Black tea; green tea; white tea;  they are all the same plant.  A very you tea plant is white; then it turns green and finally black.  The early black tea plant is used to make oolong tea.  The plant increases in strength and flavor as it grows.  I'll go into this more deeply at another time.

In the early Christian churches, there were no pews prior to the Protestant Reformation.  Catholics stood during the mass.  Protestantism brought long sermons into practice and seats became necessary.  Now, they are most everywhere.
