A person who has a tendency to hurt my feelings in a way that seems intentional told me their computer crashed and they had to shell out a large sum to replace it.... I thought it was karma and smiled when they walked away.

You don't have to be great to get started, but you do have to get started to be great. -Lee J. Colan
in regard to expensive things, not bikes or cars, a person can buy a flute, yes, a flute, that has a layer of silver for sound projection, and a layer of gold for warmth of sound. It is made by an American flute maker and sells for nearly $30,000. Yes I got the zero's right. Maybe I'll just sell my house and car and all my personal posessions and buy one and sit out on the street playing it with the case open for people to throw money into.
As a flute player myself it sometimes comes up in conversation about how expensive flutes can be and people scoff at me when I tell them. I had the opportunity to play some of these fine instruments at a flute fair I attended a few years back. It's hard to fathom holding that much money in your hands. You sure don't want to drop it! But oh....they played so sweetly, almost effortlessly! I also got to play some alto, contra-alto, and bass flutes. Talk about cool!
