I must say though, that since I have been rummaging around TubeNet I have discovered some very remarkable women tuba players. Women tuba players, don't be shy, be loud and proud. Show us what you've got and let the music speak for itself.

About the only occupation I detest more than lawyers and politicians are journalists. This particular writer just thinks he's real cute!

Journalists, supposedly, write the truth. I refer to most of these as "columnists". ie, Their job is to fill columns with (regardless of how nonsensical) letters and spaces.
Some are c
olumnists, others are c
alumnists:
