IS IT REAL OR A FAKEE

I have been stressing over this for the past seven days...reportedly a J. JACQUES MILLANT bow. Now, my batting average with ebay items has been quite good but there have been several foibles also. So, on this the last day of 2009, with 17 seconds to go on the auction, I bid and won. It is either another grande coup in my bow and instrument acquistions or a companion for the trout pond visitations come spring. TIME WILL TELL

Why I like dogs more than most people

UNBELIEVABLE...

I received a phone call 3 hours ago from some irate mother whose son's violin had broken yesterday and he had a church performance tonight. Now, mind you he is NOT even one of my students.

She wanted to borrow a violin. I told her that I really had nothing to loan out, whereupon she barked "You mean to tell me you have no violin at all?" Sure, I do...several, but none that I would be willing to loan out. I do not loan instruments...She called me a jerk and slammed down the phone.

Now, what's wrong with this picure???
