Speaking of drinking...as I was knocking back a brew last night I was wondering (and even asked DH), When was the first beer bottle made? I mean, who invented it?

You know infant follow-up clinic is boring when you sneak off to find the following link to answer this important question. Not sure if the answer is in there, but it's a start. ;)

I didn't paste the page contents because of the rather specific reposting request at the bottom of their page.

Can't you just buy a new reed?

I'd like to refer to this joke about clarinetists about "buying a new reed"...
"Hey, how many clarinetists does it take to screw in a light bulb?"
"I don't know, how many?"
"Just one, but it takes him the entire day...because he has to go through the entire box just to find a the right one."

I love killing a thread like this...:p

Sounds like dating ;)
 
Ah...I forgot I'm not telling this to a bunch of band geeks. ;) It basically is commenting on the fact that it's so hard to find the reed that plays just right. It's hard to understand unless you've had to work with reed players...it drives many musician to insanity!

or a box of chocolate ;)

I'll go through the whole box of chocolate, but not to find the right one. Every chocolate is the right one. ;)
 
LOL, Be, you sound like my sister. I do have a lovely box of 100% liquid center chocolate covered cherries here, if anyone would care for one :flower:
