Can you think of a funnier caption: like-- Hold the Gibson I'll go back for the Stelling?

Ive thought about what would be the first thing I would save if I went under water and this explains it all

LOL, I would save my Wife first, I love her very much ( of course my wife comes in here and reads this stuff sometimes) so yes my wife. I would never let my Banjo fall in the water !!!!

I always try to leave my banjo close to an exit in hopes that if there is a fire I can grab it on the way out.

Hmm, this is causing me to think seriously - I usually strap my banjo into the seat. That could make things more difficult in the rescue. Maybe I should buy it a life vest for our road trips just in case.

I just showed that to my wife.
I think the head note she got when whe hit me was about a G# . . .

That's why, when my house was robbed, the thief took my banjo. It was close to the door, and not in the back room with the other instruments, which he didn't bother with.

Alternative caption: I just don't get it! They pay big money for submerged timber rims!

Alt caption... "at least we didnt fly united" (reference all the YouTube videos that say united breaks guitars)

Caption: "Here hold this... The car should float back to the top now!"

Seems to be a variety of these cartoons floating around -- in the first version of this I saw, the guy had a bag a golf clubs.

I can't quite remember all the details but the story goes something like this. There is a fellow in a town south of me that made his wife very angry. She took his guitar down to Lake Shelbyville and threw it in. He never really knew what happened to it. A person I met said they were fishing of the dock and brought up a guitar. He dried it out made it run and played it for a while. One day he was out playing and the owner came up to him and said where did you get that guitar. He explained how he found it then gave it back to him. That guitar found it's own way home.

Just like the Ring of Power in Tolkein's Lord of the Rings, it's uncanny how instruments seem to find their owners.
