Yep, it's right on the bank of the Pearl River. It's just south of Bejingburg.

It's much easier to bash a Steinway than it is to play one.

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer to camp with a piano. http://annarbor.craigslist.org/msg/3708888775.html

Not really funny, but it is interesting to see one of these: Lindner grand.

It is interesting; I had thought all of those Lindner grand’s were long gone by this point. The Lindner concept was a good idea, poorly executed.

The Lindner grands were not bad, except that you periodically have to tighten the bolts that hold the soundboard to the frame to keep it from buzzing.

The Lidner is interesting. It makes me wonder if a piano could be engineered to fit in a murphy bed apparatus.

Unbelievable. Almost as bad as the piano set on fire then shipped out to sea to a FL sandbar a few years back, on Yahoo news.

Here is a funny Craigslist ad that doesn't have anything to do with pianos, but does illustrate the need for proper spelling. I got a laugh out of his "unfortunate spelling" when I saw it, maybe you will too. Here is the ad: Funny Ad Not to mention the fine photography.

My guess is that it is a vintage Pepto und Bismole. They were an award from Mary Kay.

Drat - It's been removed!
Maybe the person who listed it reads Piano World.

Sorry about that. Someone had place an organ by the curb and listed it as a piano with the title "Don't know anything about it."
