A joke for musicians; "C, E-flat and G go into a bar. The bartender says, "sorry, but we don't serve minors." So E-flat leaves, and C and G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished and G is out flat. F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. `D comes in ...and heads for the bathroom saying, "Excuse me. I'll just ...be a second." Then A comes in, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor. Then the bartender notices B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and says, "Get out! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight." E-Flat comes back the next night in a three-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender says, "you're looking sharp tonight. Come on in, this could be a major development." Sure enough, E-flat soon takes off his suit and everything else, and is au natural. Eventually C sobers up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. C is brought to trial, found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of D.S. without Coda at an upscale correctional facility."

Very funny!

And punny!

Good one. We can all use a good chuckle this time of year. Thanks.

Wait .. wait a minute! I got one!

Policeman: - Excuse me, Sir, but have you got permission to play that violin in the street?
Busker: - Well, actually, no.
Policeman: - In that case, I must ask you to accompany me.
Busker: - Certainly, officer. What would you like to sing?

A scientific theorem: Dogs tend to behave like their owners. To prove this a test is set up at the Institute for Animal Behavior at the University of Edinburgh.

The test location is a room with windows all around so scientists can look in and see what's happening. The testing ob- and subjects are a heap of bones, one dog A from a banker, a dog B owned by an architect, and dog C from a musician. The owners are present too of course.

1- Dog A is let loose in the room, sees the bones, reaps them together to a heap, sits on top of this mount and crosses his paws waiting for business. Dog A tested alright ....

2- Dog B is let in the same room, sees the heap and after kicking dog A out of the way he builds himself a nice dog house out of all them bones, lays down in it, and falls asleep. Dog B, a match for the theory too ....

3- Now dog C is set loose. He whistles a tune while sniffing his way around the heap of bones, and suddenly eats them all in one big wallop. Then he runs to a corner and starts vomiting a while. After recovering himself he spots the other two dogs, chases them around the room barking, then f*cks them both, and finally walks over to the window asking his boss: "Hey dude, is there any money in this gig?" ....

PS Heard this one from Ian Mackintosh, Scottish folksinger, alas now no longer on this planet to tell more fine jokes.
