Overtons like potato chips?

I heard that Overtons were like potato chips:
You can never have just one. I have found that true. After my first one, a low D, my
WH(overton)A has "forced" me to order an alto F from Colin.
IS THERE ANY END???????

You can have just one and survive.
I have just one Overton Tenor(low) D.
I have just one Overton Alto F
I have just one Overton Mezzo-Soprano A.

I suspect I'll have just one regular-d soon and just one Bb, and just one bass A, and Just one G and just one ....

I will survive with just one <font size=-3>of each</font>.

And not the type of chips that have, like, barbeque or ranch or some other nasty flavoring on them!

I have a Low-D, a Low-F, and a High-D and am working on adding more even as we speak (read?).

From what I remember, Overtons are pretty expensive potato chips...I agree that you can never have just one. I tried, once. It was a truly well wrought and sophisticated instrument... I guess I am simply not an Overton person. I sold it to an individual who would appreciate it...
Best to all.

Didn't I buy your Overton Byll?

It suits me admirably...and now I have two more arriving any day...a C and a Bflat...
OK, Overton afficionados......what should I get next?

I only have one, a low C.

"YOU NEED MORE!"

John Palmer whisper's back, "Just tell my wife I need more."

She just doesn't get it, when it comes to whistles. Although she did let me buy a new F-5 mandolin.

Whistles, chips, obsession...

By Jove, Holmes, I think we're onto something. What if those chips that the Mexican chappies use to eat their avocado pudding contained a secret ingredient with an addictive character?

Lizzie: Yup... My Overton is your Overton. I am glad you are enjoying it...Best to you, my friend.

Hmmmm.... I have not tried that brand of chip as of yet. I hear that they are low fat with a robust flavor.

I will be trying this brand here shortly. Perhaps in another week or two. It is the low d variety chip. Oh, the thought of different flavors! OH NO!
