I think you’ll find it interesting. Not I. Glad to hear another of our small group educating the masses! As I always tell my students, when in doubt blow in the small end of the horn. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 @tromprof You’ll be interested in hearing that Max, our pet chinchilla, loved trombone music. Chinchillas are nocturnal. The sure way to lure Max from his dark hideaway out into the larger cage was live trombone music. Recorded trombone music did not fool Max. Live saxophone did not appeal to Max. Eventually, the sound of opening the case would bring Max to the bars of his cage. The say it takes 300 chinchillas to make a coat. That’s because they have tiny hands. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, might pay better. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 It’s never “next” Friday, just like it’s never tomorrow or yesterday, but always today. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the clarification Neil. Now I know why there are "Free Beer Tomorrow" signs in some bars. 😂 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 The Rolex 24 at Daytona starts today. Wish I was there. It's a bucket list race for me. One of my favorite drivers will make his first start there....Alex Zanardi. He lost both his legs in a race crash. It's amazing what this guy has accomplished. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The attendance has really picked up in the past few years. They interviewed a foreign driver, he said last year at 3am he smelled someone cooking with BBQ sauce! He knew right then that he would enjoy racing in the US. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Mornin' after my speakers were auditioned I feel somewhat deprived. Without going through all of the steps to finding good speakers, one jump ... I fell into a primo pair. Still gaining appreciation for what I got. I did not go to the Arivaca on display thing at the park. After the water being out and me needing to bathe... By the time I was "ready" the party was breaking up. They had a couple local bands, booths, food... mostly the people on display. Missed my big chance, I know 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Yes @Ceptorman. Wednesday looks like it won't be a beach day. They’re predicting heavy snow tomorrow and rain next Sunday. Thank God it’s never “next Sunday.” 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
