want to dance the rumba.

Fred had two left feet, however,

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/05/2022:  18:34:40

and his conjoined twin brother had two right feet.

In high school

they played the tuba and piccolo in the marching band.

Sometimes they’d inadvertently start reading each other’s score

OM45GE - Posted - 09/06/2022:  03:09:40

which made Sousa marches sound like punk rock.

Speaking of punks,

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/06/2022:  04:38:23

I wonder how many play the banjo.

It might be an improvement

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/06/2022:  06:28:32

over their usual cacophony of out of tune $70 electric guitars.

Speaking of tuning

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/06/2022:  10:55:03

, my banjo likes to be tuned daily.

Lately it has been

OM45GE - Posted - 09/07/2022:  03:29:38

difficult to find time to practice.

My wife

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/07/2022:  04:40:02

and I don’t think alike, she donates money to the homeless while I donate money to the topless.

We were happy

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/07/2022:  07:26:36

until she found out my secret place that I often sneaked off to.

Just last week she

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/07/2022:  08:38:05

caught me with my pants down.

I told her I’d lost weight

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/07/2022:  09:00:44

and was having a bad day without her fussing at me.

She was quite for a day or so then

OM45GE - Posted - 09/08/2022:  02:51:49

she uttered those four fateful words, “We’ve got to talk”.

I pretended

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/08/2022:  05:01:22

my hearing aid batteries were dead and that I was having a dizzy spell.

I threw myself on the

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/08/2022:  08:09:13

mercy of the court not to sentence me to a life with her.

The jury didn't agree

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/08/2022:  09:25:06

and sent me away with a bouquet of roses for her.

She sneezed and bawled

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/08/2022:  13:30:33

and began to casting spells towards me.

Thankfully I

OM45GE - Posted - 09/08/2022:  17:30:01

was able to get out the door before she finished her incantations.



It was a close call, but

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/08/2022:  21:59:19

I’d been through it before when she came home from the Salem Witch Seminar Weekend 5 years ago.

She cast a spell on me

OM45GE - Posted - 09/09/2022:  02:55:56

and I suddenly found myself unable to speak.

That kept

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/09/2022:  09:13:57

me from continuously putting my foot in my mouth.

The evening air was

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/09/2022:  12:44:27

was rather humid and she started to sweat profusely.

For some reason

OM45GE - Posted - 09/09/2022:  16:35:59

that reminded me of a joke about pigs.

I started to

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/09/2022:  18:19:23

to reminiscence about my younger days.

Back then

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/09/2022:  20:27:21

the girls would look at me with a hairy eyeball.

I think my

OM45GE - Posted - 09/10/2022:  04:11:50

devilish good looks drove them mad with desire but my friends thought otherwise.

They said

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/10/2022:  07:44:21

they would gladly repay me Tuesday if I bought them a hamburger today.

Not being

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/10/2022:  08:50:25

readers of Popeye comic books, they fell for it.

When Tuesday rolled around

OM45GE - Posted - 09/10/2022:  18:05:16

I was halfway to my mountain cabin.

I had no intention

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/11/2022:  10:07:08

of staying more than a week but it ended up staying for a month.

When I finally made it home

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/11/2022:  11:02:02

I loathed city life and all its noise and cacophony.

O give me a home

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/11/2022:  11:45:16

where the mortgage is paid in full.

A low taxation

OM45GE - Posted - 09/11/2022:  15:26:13

rate may sound good on paper.

But it’s even better

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/11/2022:  16:20:46

for my bank account.

I’ve been saving up for

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/11/2022:  17:29:13

several months now and think Ill buy me a new banjo.

So Far I

OM45GE - Posted - 09/12/2022:  02:53:45

I have amassed seven dollars and sixty three cents.

I hope

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/12/2022:  03:14:46

the BHO classifieds will yield an affordable treasure.

Maybe a fixer-upper

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/12/2022:  08:00:09

that has a broken neck and a bent tailpiece.

My last banjo

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/12/2022:  16:48:16

that I bought off of eBay has a Gibson neck on it.



Been trying to

Edited by - KyBanjo on 09/12/2022 16:49:44

OM45GE - Posted - 09/13/2022:  03:24:56

figure out how it got their.

It’s not original and

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/13/2022:  04:20:02

the plastic nut is way too narrow.

Maybe I should

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/13/2022:  09:15:16

replace the parts that I can afford right now.

Speaking of nuts

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/13/2022:  09:29:38

the squirrel living in my attic only likes pistachios.

I quit feeding him

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 09/13/2022:  14:32:07

and now he chews the insulating coating off the house wires.

I’m concerned

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/13/2022:  15:01:16

that they may end up cooking themselves.

It only takes

OM45GE - Posted - 09/13/2022:  17:25:11

two to tango but many more a needed for a mob scene

Speaking of Mobs

KyBanjo - Posted - 09/13/2022:  17:52:15

did you see the crowds over at Slippery Sams.

They were dressed like

chuckv97 - Posted - 09/13/2022:  21:38:13

midgets at a limbo dance-off.

I’ve hated dancing ever since

OM45GE - Posted - 09/14/2022:  04:52:55

my best friend waltzed in and stole away with my wife.

I’m sure going to
