“Well, but not having any clue has never interfered with my certainty that I have the answer.”
Porridger’s Almanack (Breakfast of Ganglions)
My sister, the dentist-baffling comedienne....
Conversation with my dentist and oral hygienist
OH: Do you chew gum?
Me: Occasionally I'll chew Trident.
OH: You should try Orbit. It’s the only one I’ll chew.
Me: But they don't have cinnamon.
Dentist: You chew Trident? If you like that I have one you’ll like better.
Me: Orbit?
D: Have you tried it?
Me - No, because they don’t have a flavor I like. So I guess you are the one dentist?
[blank look from all]
Me: You know. The commercial? “9 out of 10 dentists recommend Trident” ...you must be the one hold-out.
[blank look].
I should really quit trying to be funny.
As noted here, my friend Frank Warren’s Quartet will regretfully be deferred to the Fall, and he agreed to write a new piece for April. His Three Notions of Love & Ruin, Op. 50 for Alto Flute & Bassoon was delivered on 28 February.
I need to consider the flow of the program....
