Obviously. When you tell somebody to kiss your a**, they can
only reply, "Pick a body part. You're all a**."

And boy, did you ever put me in my place. Dealt with me indeed,
you did. I feel just terrible, scarred for life even. I may never
recover. Big meanie.

But seriously, folks, it takes all kinds. Not to wax overly phi-
losophical, but I've always operated on the idea that we're human
beings first, clarinetists and everything else second. Even Tony
Pay is one of us, as much difficulty as he might have admitting it.
So let the guy be himself, ignore the insolence, and let's get on
with talking about clarinets and music. You don't have to like him,
or anybody else for that matter, to learn from them. Your only re-
course for a lack of tolerance is to block the messages or unsubscribe.
I promise I'll not say another word about anybody's style of expression
again.

Now, where did I put that reed trimmer?
