Hi all! I just came over here from Praise Whistlers Abroad, thought I’d see what C&F was all about! My name is Lisa, I’ve been whistling since January, and I have tons to learn! I’m sure you guys will be a great inspiration. 
Looking forward to chatting!
Welcome aboard! Always glad to have new people around. Hope you have a good time and learn lots! This is a great group of people to learn from, or even just chat with.

Welcome, Lisa! 
This is where most of the PWA members learn what they know – you’ll recognize a lot of the same people here. There’s an incredible amount of info in the forums, and on the main site. Anything not listed, can be asked – there is a wealth of experience and knowledge amongst the members. And a lot of fun OT’s.

Hello Lisa, welcome.
Fran, your avatar puts interesting thoughts into my head about how that cat got that do!
Steven,
You may wish to check out the following exchange between Miss Kitty and Natasha for a “fascinating” insight into the subject of “the do”. Take your meds first.

Now, Steven, do lizards have do’s and you just can’t see them?

Interesting discussion to say the least (not sure I would want to say more). In your post you mention that it was your WHISTLE that promoted “Nat’s” unique do condition. I was of the mind (wishing and hoping actually) that it may have been more in the line of the ELECTRIFICATION aspect of your discussion. 
I don’t do cats, by the way.
Regarding my reptiles. They are just so cute the way they are that they see no reason to try to cover up anything with the likes of any sort of makeup or do. 
Well Steven, I wish I could say that my whistle playing was ELECTRIFYING but it just ain’t so. Maybe someday.
As for cats, they’re really nice people once you get to know them. I’m actually a dog gal but my husband loves cats - hence 1 dog and 2 cats. I find that the saying, “Dog’s have owners but cat’s have staff” is really quite true. I am definitely staff.
As for reptiles and their no make-up and no “do” policy, that just says to me that they’re a bunch of naked exhibitonists. Must be that Norhern California thing. 
At least get the poor things a little sunblock to help out with the whole wrinkle issue.
I think I will start a fund for reptile rights. Maybe they’re cold with all that nudity. Reptile sweaters…now you must have some of those in California. Argile? Cashmere? Natasha says she wants one, too.
I warned you to take the meds first.

Hairy lizards look silly…
Hi Lisa!

THWACK
(sound of tranquilizer dart)
Padded cell? You have a padded cell??? Why when I was a kid we would have KILLED for a padded cell. We had to dig our own pit to live in. In rocky soil. With our bare hands. And we LIKED it! Mutter, mutter, mutter . . . Kids these days. Shakes head disdainfully.
Okay, Kids. I can see there’s a great need here for some “adjustmment”. The pharmacy is open…belly on up.

PS - I remember being told that oboe players were all a little wacky because of the back pressure. What’s our excuse?
Check with Talbert, I think he needs a nice cocktail of them about now.
