Long as we are splitting hairs, the plural of bouzouki is bouzoukia, rather than bouzouka.

And shouldn't "dulcimers banjo" have an apostrophe before the 's', if it really is dulcimer's banjo?

If it weren't for spliting hairs, I wouldn't have half the hair I have now. My hair is more like a Surrey with a fringe on top.

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

If you think about it, 'More of less' is an apt description.

Well, when you think about it, it might be a good thing for those of you that are thinning out on the top. If you split all of your hairs, you'd have double what you had to begin with.

Y'know, if you look at it in sort of an abstract way, my present avatar and Izzy's present avatar are similar in appearance.

Yeah, in a somewhat abstract way, they do.
In my view, though, her's is suggestive of a pregant woman and your's is suggestive of trying to pick a lock with a bow, or maybe some freaky looking guillotine.

Funny: At 1st glance Walden's avatar looks to me like a mousetrap. Like a mousetrap that might catch Jerry Freeman's mouse.
