Just wondering what passes the test of time? I personally have an old Casio watch and if you count fruit trees, those are pretty old too.

      Sadly, no. I was told by my cousins, who are professional violinists, that I had the ability, but they didn’t inform me of that until I was already 25 and a chef.

      I inherited the thing because I found it in my grandma’s closet when I was 6 and helping her clean her room. I asked her who owned it, and she said it was my dead grandpa’s violin. So I asked again, then who’s is it? She thought about it and said “I dunno, I guess whichever of you grandkids learns to play it first.”

        Have you had it insured? I see they go for roughly 20.000 to 150.000 USD, so I assume it’s an ‘of course I have’ moment, but you seem to be quite nonchalant with it so far :D
