Choosing to Condemn

[John Ross]

Hi List,
If anyone asks if I play, I make a joke of it.
I tell them I am anti-union, and that the musicians union said I would
have to become a member if I played. Some actually believe it, so I
have to be sure and straighten them out.
I also say I had an agreement with Liberace, he said he wouldn't tune,
if I didn't play.  Most of them take this as a joke.
Then the one that actually gets some women hot under the collar, is, I
tell them I have to leave something, my wife can do better than me.
I then tell them, I took lessons as a child, and they didn't go
anywhere.
I then tell them that it is more important that they try it out before
I leave, to make sure everything is to their liking, so I can fix it
before I leave.
Regards,
John M. Ross

|
| That's always been my favorite - like if you played, you wouldn't
need to
| be able to hear.

| Yes indeed, I'd certainly never think of buying wood or wood
products from
