Hmm, tubagirl, I think you’re right. Used to play tuba myself, and met quite a few tubists (I like saying tubists), only one female, though–till noww=.

I know of another. I’ve heard she posts here occasionally.

My brain must be on the way to making nice little pencil erasers. Not too far from how I feel this morning, actually 😃

I guess my username doesn’t reflect the condition of my brain, as my brain isn’t available for $400 in kit form…

At least they aren’t comparing you to that annoying Audry on Ellen deGeneres’ show…right?

Well, my username would say something interesting about my mental state…either I’m _being_ trouble, or I’m _in_ trouble…all the time…again and again…woe is me…

Username = Condition of brain?

It’s been debated.

I just try to not take myself so seriously that I can’t be laughed at… by myself or others.

Mine says nothing about myself - it is the name of a musical piece I like from J.S Bach [then again, maybe it does]. BTW last Sunday was the 250th anniversary of the death of one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time. I listened to Bach CD all afternoon…very enjoyable.
