Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 11, 2013
Transcript:
Ernesto: Peter! Sorry I missed band rehearsal the other day. Petey: You weren't there because you're imaginary. Ernesto: Haha! No, I merely had a dental appointment. Petey: Uh-huh. Ernesto: I'm cutting my fourth set of teeth, which is most unusual for someone my age who isn't a great white shark. Ernesto: But I'll bet at rehearsal today, armed with my trusty trombone, whom I've dubbed "THE HURLITZER" Petey: My imagination is really good.

The Hurlitzer . . ... . . very descriptive of a trombone at the mercy of a middle school student.

I played trombone when I was 11. I can vividly remember playing “Oh, My Papa” and thinking it was pretty cool. I got in a fight with the music teacher’s son and lost interest in the trombone.
