The Barn by Ralph Hagen for January 20, 2010

The great, wise ram came down the hill with a mission to kill. He put the fatal squeeze on the squeezebox.

Rory should just be glad that the ram didn’t ram it anywhere.

Rory, you ticked the old geezer off!

I know just how the ram feels. When I was a teen, my kid sister decided to take up the accordian and her practicing drove me to join the Marines at 17.

A sour note riles a dour goat.

Exactly how well did you play the accordian, Rory? If the shape of the notes in the panels is any indication, I’m guessing not very well.

IS there a good way to play the accordion?

Forget the accordion, take up bagpipes, Make friends, influence people

Shades of Bugs Bunny and Giovanni Jones in Long-Haired Hare!

Why don’t sheep play the accordion? Because they have much better hearing than people.

D*mn ram slammed the jam!

rory, it might be able to be fixed……….

Ever hear of that bagpipe, trombone, banjo, and accordion quartet? I didn’t think so.

Bagpipes are for military or police funerals - even tho’ I’m part Scottish I only want to hear them in “Amazing Grace” which always makes me cry. My dad played trombone, but… and Forget accordian or banjo (the latter reminds me only of Arthur Godfrey).

I thought the Wise old Ram had gone on vacation
