Tim,

I'm far from grumpy - in fact, if jokes are to be told I'm the first one
volunteering.

The problem is, that EVERY TIME some one sends by email or attempts to tell
a "musician" joke, all we get are the SAME seventy-five one-liners which by
now have not only become tiresome, but rather downright annoying. The
teller, of course thinks we've all been living in caves for the past century
and have never encountered these before.

Your recent "discoveries" of the latest and funniest are hardly that

Music jokes? I love them and enjoy a great laugh - but please find some
jokes/stories/puns that are new, witty, or at least written within the past
decade.

Not a lot to ask for.
