Speaking as a bassoonist, :stare:

You may also then enjoy peter schickele's other great invention, the tromboon.

Which is an instrument constructed by taking the mouthpiece and reed from a bassoon and putting it in on a trombone.

It produces an instrument the sound of which very closely resembles being run over by a speeding truck.

I think it's amazing he's still alive, largely not doing any performances since the 70s and being just fine with that.

If I had oligarch levels of cash I would pay a truly obscene amount - direct to the man himself, given to a charity of his choice, whatever - for him to come out of retirement for one last song about Donald Trump.

Tom Lehrer walked into the store I was working at once. This was a few years ago but he was still super old obviously. I didn't recognize him, didn't even realize who it was until my coworker said "Hey that was Tom Lehrer" after he left. Hopefully he's still out there living his best life.

An economics teacher who isn't boring is either:
a) not actually teaching economics (good)
b) a sociopath (bad)

My FiL was an economics professor and he was a narcissist. I didn't go to his funeral, but apparently Milton Friedman did (his mentor).

Huge missed opportunity.

Edit: turns out this didn't happen and I was conflating two separate things.
