{I can hear a certain crowd, fuming...}

"This is so unacceptable… they lost all the break angle on those strings!"

***** ***** *****

Of course, my first thought was, “How clever! Concerned about losing an eye? Nothing a little epoxy can’t resolve."

A couple goes to see a marriage counselor. They say their marriage is on the rocks because they never speak to each other. The counselor tries to get them to talk, but they just sit there with their arms folded and their mouths closed. So he pulls out his upright bass and starts taking a solo. Instantly, the couple turns to each other and starts conversing for the first time in months. Shocked by this, the couple asks the counselor: “How did you know that would work?”

“Simple,” he says, “Everyone always talks during the bass solo.”

An anthropologist is visiting a primitive society. One night, he hears drums beating in the distance. Concerned, he asks one of the tribesmen what's up with the drums. The native says "Drums ok, but if drums stop very bad — run away."

The drums beat on for an hour. Still uneasy, the anthropologist asks again if everything will be alright. And again, the native replies "Drums ok, but if drums stop very bad -- run away."

After another hour, the drums stop. The native stops dead in his tracks and looks up and shouts "Drums stop! Very bad! Run away!"

Scared now, the anthropologist asks what happens next.

The native replies "Bass solo!"
