Without a doubt, the best Christmas Gift I ever received was a Yamaha Portatone Keyboard. I want to go give it a hug right now. I have always wanted to play the piano ( I'm not sure that I always wanted to learn how to play the piano. I just wanted to be able to play the piano). And my lovely wife risked the peace and harmony of our household by presenting me that keyboard. I love it.  And I've been trying to learn how to play the keyboards ever since. This is vastly different than learning how to play an actual piano. I realize this every time I try to play an actual piano. But if given the chance, I could sit down and play and play and play for hours on end. There is no one who could listen for minutes on end, but that is just not the point. Thank you, Anne Marie, for the keyboard.
