“The world’s smallest alto recorder”
And, of course …
It would show up just when Ralph, who’s the only member of the board small enough to play it, has left us to seek romance and adventure in the wide world.
Just looking at this picture hurts me…
The nails, especially.
That’s not what I saw first.

There, there, Jerry. Chin up! If Ralph’s sabbatical runs overlong, he’ll surely send a replacement; what with the lure of chocolate chips, peanut butter, sunflower kernels and now, of all things, the unlooked-for opportunity to make mouse music, it’s a cushy and prestigious gig. I daresay you won’t be lacking for rodentine assistance long. You’ve sent a worldlier buck into the fray of micedom, and your services in that regard will not remain unappreciated, nor unsought. Remember your crucial rôle in the character development of mice, and give yourself a good pat on the back.
Thanks, Nano.
I needed that.
My mom brought me a tiny miniature six-hole bamboo whistle from the Philippines, made by Kingflute. Not really useful, though one could play the simplest tunes in an imprecise manner on it. They sell for just a few pesos.
Not little ENOUGH.
What shade of lipstick is that, Bloo? Your lips look divine. You could have done with a manicure, though.
That’s not really an instrument, right? Just one of those small scall models that show up on eBay and for which I cannot even imagine a real purpose?
I like your lips Bloom. Kinda gothic

There was a time, before the Federal Trade Commission was commissioned, when the rules about truth in advertising were much more lenient than now. Two examples of what you could legally do (and people did):
- Run an ad for a beautiful steel engraving of George Washington touting the nationally renowned artist and the high quality of the print, deckled on all four edges, selling for, say 50 cents (probably the equivalent about five dollars today). For the price, the customer received in the mail,
A two cent stamp.
And an ad for a beautiful suite of wicker furniture, exactly as pictured, etc. etc. For your purchase price, which was remarkably reasonable for a whole room full of furniture, you received in the mail,
A set of doll house furniture.
(The recorder reminded me of this.)
Best wishes,
Jerry
It’s really too bad you can’t see the mascara.
:roll:
Hey, you can’t post a picture like this without a sound clip and review of the instrument ! What’s this board coming to?
What’s the point of having more than six holes if you have to resort to such ridiculous cross-fingering to get a good Cnat? I always said R******rs are a waste of money.
Or the 150 REAL LIFE toy soldiers, tanks, airplanes etc you could get from the back of a comic book for $1.00. All turned out to be little paper cutouts. I know from experience.
