Oh, fishy, fishy!

Don't fish do scales?

Mark Twain was so moved by the eloquent sermon that he was ready to give the $400 he had in his pocket, as soon as the collection plate came around. But the plate was delayed as the preacher droned on interminably. After 20 minutes into the sermon he thought of giving only $40. Another 20 minutes went by. Thoughts of giving dropped to $4. Final, after the another half hour of lengthy delay, the bask was finally pasted at which time Twain took a $5 bill from the plate.

How can you tell a frog from a horny toad?

A frog says: "Ribit, Ribit"

A horny toad says: "Rubit, Rubit"

Did you hear about the peanuts walking in Central Park....

One was a-salted.

We need pictures. Hope to see the horn in person at the next Cincinnati Trumpet Hang!

This just found, an incredible online link to a very comprehensive Christmas Music Song Book:

I know of this one VERY WELL

Hearkens back to a time when Doctors made house-calls and mouthpiece buzzed in their carriage underway.

The origin of the siren.

Hangs over my fireplace as I sit here. Listening to the phooowwww wisping from the flames!

Please remember that there are minors amongst the members...

Coal, iron or diamond?

Come by, bring beer and your script pad...

How about I still come by with the beer and script pad? By the way, can I still write for controlled substances in your state with an Ohio license? If not, can you bring a pocket trumpet inserted in the cake when you visit me in my cell?

@Vulgano-Brother said in Christmas Services:

Looks about time for you to learn piccolo trumpet. Come by, bring beer and your script pad and I'll give you a lesson.

Update. Not needing the picc. The silver and gold Harrelson with the Gold Jettone Studio B copy mouthpiece sounds really great on the descant trumpet parts. I have rehearsed all the ones posted to the point that I can now get all of them right. Took me one day to accomplish this.

Now my task is to rehearse them to the point I cannot get them wrong. Hopefully I will be there by Wednesday when I rehearse with the choir and organist. Definitely within a week when I play for the Little Baby Jesus.

I discovered Suolo a few years ago. Just love their bucket mute. So seductive!

Thought I would share this recent one, just to send greetings to all for a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.

What a nice gift for all of us at TB. You can wrap my above gift in the standard brown paper bag. You have my mailing address!

What do you name an oriental woman with one leg shorter than the other?

Just received these Descant Trumpet parts for several Christmas Carols for the Lutheran performance. I am posting them hear to save time for any members from having to do a lengthy internet search. Enjoy:

To use an analogy though, you can get from New Hampshire to California in a BMW or a Volkswagen Beetle. It just depends on how you want to travel.

If there is snow on the passes I'll take the VW!

I'll take the higher priced helicopter, with 5mm rotor blades.

Certainly not King Trumpet!
