AlanHo Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I am devasted to find that I have been cruelly deprived of 34 years of my life.34 years ago I had an overwhelming ambition to become a cellist and I managed to obtain a battered old cello at a boot fair. After my first year of practice it was pointed out to me that it was a dangerous activity for men - because it would result in a very painful and life threatening illness called Cello Scrotum - so I gave up on the idea and have had this awful vauum in my life ever since. The very thought of having such a near miss has forever played on my mind and for many years I have felt the need to regularly make a crafty "adjustment" to check that all is OK down under.Can you imagine my distress at reading this week that it was in fact a hoax in a spoof medical journal report and that my sacrifice was all in vain. ..........

catgate Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I can understand your feeling of deprivation, Alan. I spent three years trying to play the violin, until someone told me it was not the violin that I was trying to play but the piano. I then suddenly realised why I had been having so much trouble getting it under my chin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I was quite good at the piano when I was a kid. I was however too lazy to keep the lessons going. I mush prefer to hear music played really well, and am a much better listener than player. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
