| Hello
I'd like to share with you a quote by Del Stagers,
" When a veteran in the business gives you advise, listen carefully to what he has to say...The chances are a 100 to 1 that he is right "
Now, in every professional field of endeavor whether it be engineering, architecture, teaching, accounting, cooking, economic, business, sports,etc. there are members of that field that would be considered " learned and respected " to anyone associated with that career path because of what they have achieved and the high degree of accomplishment they have under their belts. Outside the so called " inner circle" they would not be such a " household " name . Right
Seeing that a forum of this nature has members of all different achievements, accomplishments and calibers , maybe the name " Wilmer Wise " doesn't hold the " weight " it has with "the folk" that do do this for a living.
Again, there are forum participants that are very adept at forming concise and cohesive writings, putting thought to paper , maybe more that others. That's only natural in an open member situation as this one is.
Here's a little story,
When I was much younger , and a little full of myself, one of my most influential trumpet teachers once said to me when I was questioning some minute point he was making ,trying to elevate myself to a level I was not yet at, he finally turned to me after patiently waiting for me to come back down to earth and finish my long diatribe I was on and firmly stated:
" Larry
Jesus Christ, stop trying to pick the fly s*** out of the pepper - that's the easy part. Try to get ahold of the bigger concept here, will ya "
It's funny what you remember when your young.
Food for thought
