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

True meaning of "Steinwas"?? I guess?? What model was it?

I wonder why couldn't they just work their way up? That would be safer...

If a Steinway falls from a helicopter and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?

That's a totally fake pic....

Maybe your original photo was set up too, as it
would be easy to put a bunch of loose piano parts
into a pile...

Sure, I'll bet you a 9' Steinway you are full of it.

Just look at how fake that picture is. The piano is
in a different focus than the helicopter!

HAVE YOU HEARD OF SOMETHING CALLED PHOTOSHOP?????!!???

Doesn't prove anything. Where did you get the
picture that is obviously fake?

You are the one who owes me the Steinway...
