A recent conversation between my buddy Dan and I while enjoying some instrumental music on a Sunday evening:
Dan: If I could find a girl that played like this…(referring to the skill level of YoYo-Ma) I would marry her on the spot.
Bart: What is she playing?
Dan (responding in a more forceful way, thinking I didn’t hear him the first time) If… I…could… ….
Bart: I know, I know!... But what is she playing??
D: The cello.
B: So why don’t you find someone who can play the cello?
D:(With the most serious, disgruntled face imaginable) Cause I don’t want to get married on the spot!
(At this point I’ve rolled over laughing, and he continues to explain while starting to laugh himself) Because if I did meet her, I’d have to marry her right there. I’d be obligated.
B: Because she's masterful at playing the cello?
D: Yes.
PS. I’ve recently found out that in Mormon society, about 80% of the guys date 20% of the girls.

What the blog???? Loooovvvee it!
good stuff brother! You are correct about that 20 -80 jazz only, its 20% of the guys date 80% of the time, and its about 35% of the girls that get asked...
The percentages have me baffled. Watch out, boys! I'm taken (good thing, cause I can't figure out the math...)
