From a friend of mine, Allen Bean, a church musician in Richmond, VA...

A week ago I asked a boy chorister to remove his watch, which he kept checking during rehearsal. This week he showed me his bare arm at the beginning of rehearsal. I commended him. He said, "But I think you cursed me. There's rash where I wear my watch." I replied, "No. I don't have the power to do that." Another boy says, "O yes you do. You have the power of music, which is the most powerful force on earth."
