Subj: Re: [kl] Where did the name "Sneezy" come from?
Date: Sun, 14 Oct 2001 11:28:33 -0400

Mark sneezed during his Mozart 2nd movt cadenza.
And Virginia (she`s recovering from flu) sneezed during her performance of
something by John Cage - -can`t quite remember what it was - - - - (Hope
you`re feeling better Virginia.)
My cousin sneezes 6 times every time he has an attack. He recently was
ordained and gave his sermon from the pulpit in a most uncomfortable, and
miserably cold church. Can you guess what happened?
He came along to a recording where he actually sat in the studio itself.
He was asked to leave by the musicians.

But honestly, Mark did sneeze - - - - - - :<) and I was only joking as far
as Virginia is concerned - she was able to rush off stage during a bit of
tacit somewhere, so as not to disturb the audience. She only just made it
back again tho` - - - - -

But as far as Annie`s assumption goes, what use is a basset horn to a
dwarf. He`d have to stand on a chair wouldn`t he. Here`s another - -can
anyone say why the 7 dwarfs were all male? Not a joke - I just wonder why?
