 LG> Guys, GUYS!  You need a few people who play classical string
 LG> instruments so you can have "saxes and violins!"

 JE> Sorry, Lynn, I'm sure you're a nice lady and all, 
 DA> but I'm a very strong
 JE> believer in non-violins. I won't string you along. 
 JE> I don't fiddle around.

 DA> Normally I'd join in, but I'll bow out this time.  
 DA> Don't fret over it, at least not enough to go nuts and 
 DA> jump off a bridge.  (Then again, many of us wouldn't 
 DA> have the gut to do that.)

 BF> I'm disconcertoed by how low this is getting.  Dave, 
 BF> that was a truly bass remark -- doubly so, in fact.  
 BF> Do we have to cello-phane tape your mouth closed to 
 BF> get you to stop?  You should be drawn and quartet.  
 BF> That's the last time that I treat you to anything from 
 BF> the pizza cart -- oh, never mind.  I shouldn't pick on 
 BF> you, you're a plucky fellow.

 DA> Thank you -- some folks make allegro-ations that I'm 
 DA> just sym phony spouting off his largo mouth and getting 
 DA> into alto much treble with clefer remarks.

 BF> This is a ball, but we'd better keep a sharp eye out 
 BF> or the moderator will have us orcastrated.  Some of 
 BF> these comments are falling flat, but if we just act 
 BF> natural, maybe the echo staff won't notice.  They're 
 BF> getting tired of these slurs; if it isn't one thing, 
 BF> its sonata.  So, we should give it a rest.

 DA> Your point is noted.  Maybe we best beat it before we 
 DA> feel the full measure of Kay's wrath, and get barred 
 DA> from here for violating the Coda Honor.  Or maybe the 
 DA> others will drum us out.  Either way, tempo fugue-it!

 BF> Heh.  You fell into my snare, without considering the 
 BF> re percussions.  What goes round, comes round 
 BF> (although that's a muted point).  If you pick a high 
 BF> road, I piccolo one -- and it brings me to the 
 BF> conclusion that while you worried about beating it 
 BF> I've been anticipating your remarks; for any card you 
 BF> can play, I can trump et.  But for now, I think I'll 
 BF> sign off - I'm getting key bored.

 DA> Oboe-y, you have just escaped the results of your bad conduct, and 
 DA> cornety puns!  Kay was gonna give you a bat-on the head 
 DA> with the kabonger, forte times or until you cry for 
 DA> your uncle andante!  (I hear she looks good in tight 
 DA> jeans.  Ooh, la la, bassoon!)  We better stop before we 
 DA> piano'ther person off and it all comes crescendo'wn 
 DA> around our ears.  That would be the pits.  So let's 
 DA> triangle-ing for a way to get back on topic.  Anybody 
 DA> gonna chime in or pipe up with one?

I must, o,boe down to your skill in that last bit.  I feel that we are now
tied, and it's not accidental.  In fact, the duration of this thread has
probably baroquen a few records by now.  Are we in a chord?  Of chorus, some
of these comments that we've achoired have been real classics.  But Kay really 
won't put up with this for long; she can't,ata minimum she'll ask us to tone
down.  And, when she does, I don't know about you, but I'll duet.  Speaking of 
which, how did you celebrate the Winter Solo stice?
