I like the typo "frame"--in "rocketed to frame." Leave it in. Unintentional brilliance counts.

Yes now that you mention it, it does have a certain charm. 🙂

what an absolutely inspirational godsend of an article for budding globalists everywhere. so much so that i slapped my wing-wang on the keyboard of the steinway last night and produced an acceptable rendition of, 'the whiffenpoof song'. for next month's recital, i will play the same said song with my music teacher accompanying me on the ocarina which she plays with her vagina. then we'll encore with, 'beat me daddy, eight to the bar'.

That sounds like a plan. Please let us know how it goes. Try not to get injured. 👍

ah yes, safety first. i consider it of paramount importance to precede all performances of penile piano playing with the wearing of steel-belted prophylactics, enabling me to pound away pleasurably like a pro. plus, that way, the piano keys don't get all sticky gooey. it's the only way to perform when you're an 'up and cumming' prodigy tending towards the practical and pragmatic.

You certainly put a lot of thought into your art.

Well played, if you'll excuse the pun. 😆

i make it a practice to pardon all puns. and am certainly pleased to procure such praise and plaudits. i proffer the same back atcha. have thoroughly enjoyed the wit and wisdom in your posts. mayhaps will post something myself if i can make up my mind on some kind of theme for a substack. but alas, some days my brain doesn't have a mind of its own. peace to you and be well.
