Tell us something.: I am an Irish flute player and whistler. I have been a member since 2007? This has been one of the most informative sites on Irish flute I have found.

Me. Hands-down. I've seen pictures. And to further my claim, it was also recently pointed out that I look angry when playing whistle. I don't know if that was an attempt at helpfulness, or what.

So fork it over, and the rest o' yiz can stand down. What do I get?

You guys may win in the worst looks area, but I definately would be a contender for most smelliest flute player, in high school, I stunk up a whole school bus full of people with, if I remember correctly, a pair of week old socks and the bus heater which was conveniently at my feet. I also have trouble with doing my own laundry and have no problem wearing the same clothes for multiple days or weeks.

Nobody has asked yet. Of what does the award consist?
I thought I would ask before I throw my visage into the ring just to see if it was worthwile. Does the winner get one of those handsome ash flutes?

But I did already ask. And I notice MTGuru's been strangely silent on the subject. I think bragging rights are all we're getting out of his wallet.

Here's one of my old Pakistanis. Is that close enough?
