*SHUDDER* oh man!! That's really, really terrible...what a horrible mental image...

I had the weirdest thing happen a while ago...I had not gotten my swab stuck in my oboe for 2 years. Then (this is a month or 2 ago) I went to a rehearsal and the 2nd player came in...and she showed me this swab removal stuff that she had just gotten and she showed me how it was so cool and how you could get any swab out! I thought it was neat...sure enough, about 40 minutes into the rehearsal, my swab gets stuck!! It was the weirdest thing...talk about coincidence (a few weeks later, we were talking about how she's never forgotten her reeds for a rehearsal/concert...a few days later she forgot to bring her English Horn reeds to rehearsal and had to play English Horn on an oboe reed! This is in a professional orchestra!! They never noticed :D).
