pieces o nine

I've got an agreement with the owner of the local second-hand shop.



The sibling below me paid ten cents on the dollar for a piano.

Aggie

Actually, it was a Fender bass (true).


The person below me is searching the net for a picture of an exceptionally large pianist.
WWDDD?

pieces o nine

No use. My filter blocks those kinds of searches.


The sibling below me has a very nice candle board.

Well, I have a board and a very nice candle.  Does that count?


The sibling below me plays Beethoven's Ninth on a kazoo.

Sibling Chatty

Kazoo, basoon...they're similar.

The sibling below me is also similar.
This sig area under construction.

Aphos

No.  I have it on good authority that I am quite bizarre.

The sibling below me want to be bizarre at the bazaar.

Opsa

As long as I'm not BOZARRE (see the Toadfish lexicon http://toadfishmonastery.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=32&topic=1092.msg50386#msg50386)
This has been an unpaid nonpolitical announcement.

The Sibling below me would like to make another unpaid nonpolitical announcement.

Aphos

I just want to say a few words about myopia.  That's it.  Those are my few words.


The sibling below me wants to be the next duje to reach for a star.
--The topologist formerly known as Poincare's Stepchild--

Griffin NoName

I don't have far to reach. I have a whole tin of glow-in-the-dark stars on my bedside table. Good place huh!!

the sibling below me misunderstands the use of the small s.

Opsa

The small s is the same size as the big S. It's just further away.

The Sibling below me thinks all letters should remain within earshot.

Aphos

Not just within earshot, but within easy reach.  Letters should be there whenever you need to write something.

The sibling below me once wrote the great Canadian novel.
--The topologist formerly known as Poincare's Stepchild--

Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith

True.  But, in Canada, who reads, anyway?

The sibling below me is both from Canada and reads voraciously, and is most insulted.
Sometimes, the real journey can only be taken by making a mistake.

my webpage-- alas, Cox deleted it--dead link... oh well ::)

Scriblerus the Philosophe

Well, I suppose. If you're willing to go back far enough, my family is from Canadia (Quebec). And I do read voraciously. I can pretend to be insulted.  >:(
:mrgreen:

The sibling below me barely considers Quebec to be Canadian--more like a subsidiary of France or possibly Cajun country.

Aphos

Isn't Canada like the 51st state or some such?


The sibling below me can find Canada on a map.
--The topologist formerly known as Poincare's Stepchild--

Scriblerus the Philosophe

Yup! Keep heading North and boop! there it is! Unless that's, um, Norway?


The Sibling below me squeals like a happy little girl at the sight of squidlings.
