Opinion 2: The best price/performance combination is Al Cass Fast.

@Dr-GO In this painting, you're on the ship on the horizon.

Whew! I hope we are back on track; it was starting to appear that the word "A" had been removed from"A little humour".

@BigDub said in A little humour:

As for proof, is there pudding involved? If not, then, sorry.

Jellyfish pudding does not seem appetizing!

Do away with Electoral College, and we'll have a true democracy, which is defined by two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

If I can see the tarnish, I use Flitz with cotton balls and cotton swabs.

From then on, I wipe the horn and mouthpiece down after every use with Goddard's Polishing Cloth.

According to Giancarlo's father, after a day in court that was prolonged by Lynn Fogarty's attorney's pleas, questions, motions, and objections, some of them absurd, the judge sentenced her to the maximum allowable term: 10 years. Unfortunately, he then suspended 6-1/2 years of the sentence, committing the killer to 3-1/2 years in prison. This enraged her attorney, who had tried to get her punishment reduced to a fine of $2500.

@SSmith1226 I'd be interested in taking a look at your ensemble arrangements.

I spoke with Giancarlo's dad a few minutes ago, and he said that the sentencing of Lynn Fogarty will take place as scheduled on July 1, at 9:00 AM at York County Circuit Court, 300 Ballard St., Yorktown, VA 23690. COVID-19 guidelines will be followed. Hopefully there will be no more delays and that the judge will hand down an appropriate sentence.

I am in possession of Ye Olde Browne Thumb. If plants can't make it on their own on my property, they don't make it at all.

I am well behind the technological curve here, but perhaps some of our more savvy members know how to do this. It would take a user-friendly platform and an organizational plan to include participants as appropriate, with a somewhat specific goal for each performance. It would take knowledge, time, effort, and cooperation to make it happen.

@BigDub Good art is said to be evocative. To have your painting immediately make me think of a salmon run is uncanny. Bravo!

@BigDub What?!?!? No salmon?!?

@administrator No humor allowed!! You've derailed this thread!! Shame on you!!

A qualified teacher can resolve a lot of mysteries for you and keep you on track to avoid mistakes and techniques you'd have to unlearn as you try to improve. At least start with a cyber trip to eBay, and purchase a Rubank Elementary Cornet & Trumpet Method book. It's the first of a series, and it provides the necessary musical perspective you're looking for. Besides, these Rubank books usually cost well under $10, including shipping.

@Kehaulani said in did he play or didn't he ?:

I still remember the first time I ever saw him. It was a character on some 50s 1/2 hour B&W program where he was a member of an Army squad, where the people bullied him.

At the end of the show, some members decided they would throw a dud hand grenade and feign panic and see what he would do. When they didn't scatter, he threw himself on the grenade, willing to give his life up for his squad.

They just stood there looking at each other being humbled and moved by Sammy's unselfishness. It was very moving, and I had an eye on Sammy ever since.

I have never forgotten that episode. Here's more info: http://tviv.org/General_Electric_Theater/The_Patsy and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0586346/fullcredits

@administrator Your posts are always appreciated.

@Kehaulani Yup. Maybe some things bear repeating.
