    A viola player wants to escape his instrument and all its results, so he decides to learn some new instruments... goes into the music shop, looks around and says,
    "I want that long harp, the red trumpet and the accordion." -
    "You a viola player?" - "Yes, why?" -
    "You can have the hatstand and the fire extinguisher, but the radiator stays!"

            If you suck at playing the trumpet…..that’s probably why.
            Harmonica, maybe, half the time, but not trumpet.

            You’re very welcome.

                              Actually yes! As a kid I enjoyed hanging out at the Museum of Natural History in Manhattan. Below is a video of what I saw and remember clearly to this day.
                              Interestingly enough, when the book, Jurassic Park, came out, I read it while on a fishing trip, staying in the Darien Jungle of Panama. Needless to say, watched out carefully for Velociraptors and other carnivorous dinosaurs, especially when walking back to my cabin after dinner in the dark. Fortunately I did not encounter any other than in nightmares, which were very real!
