What did you expect when you dripped what looks to be wax on Jerry's piano!  Well back at you Jerry! This is what my piano looked like BEFORE you worked on it! AND . . .  This is what it looks like NOW . . . Feels like I'm on a ROLLERCOASTER! . . .

Must be that's where they got that song "meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow........ In that commercial. A GUY WALKS INTO A BAR WITH A SMALL DOG. The bartender says, "Get out of here with that dog!" The guy says, "But this isn't just any dog... this dog can play the piano!" The bartender replies, "Well, if he can play that piano, you both can stay... and have a drink on the house!" So the guy sits the dog on the piano stool, and the dog starts playing. Everything from Ragtime to Mozart, and the bartender and patrons are really enjoying the music. Suddenly a bigger dog runs in, grabs the small dog by the scruff of the neck, and drags him out. The bartender asks the guy, "What was that all about?" The guy replies, "Oh, that was his mother. She wanted him to be a doctor."

Looks like a 38 caliber #2 sub-nose tuning hammer. Guaranteed to stabilize every string or foe!!!
Weatherwise...it's gonna be a hot one, high forcasted to be 90 degrees...

The pink mobile looks like quite the oinker vehicle. Makes me wonder if the horn oinks too?
My tuning hammer makes a pretty good hammer sometimes!
Time for work!
