In here are poets
(some don't even know it!)
who are asking themselves "Just what is this?"
So, for our makers of rhymes
it's time to drop some new lines
for our Clarinet 12 Days of Christmas!
On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me......
Be creative and Merry Christmas!
Matthew

(you Bob & Doug McKenzie fans will recognize this...)
"Yeah, that Marcellus CD is empty."
(anyone else noticed that Amazon is out of stock?)

What are tuning rings?
And the scales to practice - the full 12 of them, never mind minors - belong on the last day, of course.

It ought to be "10 fingers leaping," no? 
And how about, "12 tones intoning"?
11 lively ligatures?

And in GBK's case, a special thirteenth day of Christmas:

If there are so many people on this board unwilling or unable to have a civil and balanced discussion about important issues, then I shan't bother to post here any more.
To the great relief of many of you, no doubt.
