The thyroid also plays a role in mood.

I was all set to learn drums in band, and then heard "Tijuana Taxi" on the car radio. I have been a trumpet enthusiast ever since.

@Kehaulani My nephew used to drive Maybach's from point A to point B as a summer job.

They weren't allowed to go through the McDonald's drive-through.

Dr GO: “When did it start?”

You need the right bubble solution, but you can dip a piccolo bell in it, play, and produce a bubble.

"Sound in time."
