Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.

This is the first sign of WhOA. I guess some of us become chronic carriers. I'm afraid we had a bit of an outbreak there. My bad. Go to eBay for temporary relief.

You think it looks odd now!? They both looked down right EVIL! :devil:

You should have seen the way Murph looked BEFORE the edit. His eyes glowed red and sinister. To protect my family and the users of this board I felt compelled to edit it out though. I applied the Red Eye editor and some color smudge liberally. Murph was also doing his best to avoid looking directlty AT the sheet music, but there was this terrible, insiduous pull towards it. One eye was looking away and the other was straining to see it. The total effect was one that scared and intrigued me at the same time. I think I also saw his hands quiver as he resisted the attempt to make the big box he was holding move and make music.

Calling him to the dark side, it was.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Oh, I saw that at the time - you could tell it took all his strength to resist the call of accordion (kind of like the call of Cthulhu, except more polkas). It's worse than crack cocaine - first you just hold the accordian, then you play it ("for just one tune") . . . the next thing you know you're playing "champagne music" on TV in a cloud of bubbles. :shock:

And Limuhead didn't even resist - he *did* play a tune before putting it down. You just know that pretty soon he's going to be adding accordion to ukelele and whistle on stage. And wearing white buck shoes. :tantrum:
