Of piccolos & fifes

A non-musician friend sent me this joke and I can’t resist sharing it!

Two musicians are walking down the street. One says to the other, “Who was that piccolo I saw you with last night?” The other replies, “That was no piccolo, that was my fife.”

Yeah, I know…but it made me laugh! And speaking of laughter….

For years I kept a Bizarro comic that showed two cowboys; one is holding a double bass and the other has a flute. As I remember it, the caption read: “You’d better wipe that smirk off your bass unless you’re looking for treble.” At the time I was half of a double bass/flute couple, so that lived on our refrigerator for years!

Not familiar with Bizarro? Well, here’s a sample; one final chuckle to wrap up the day (with apologies to banjo players everywhere).
