No, Sara, I am not ripping off ALL of my stripes…but those stripes are getting pretty close together.
I’ve sold 6 whistles so far. Plenty still available…
You know Jessie, you’ve made some of my inner WHoA come back to life again… Oh my, is your Abell in good shape? 
Az, YOU have inner WhOA???
If you mean my beloved Abell, yes it’s in great shape.

I just figure Jessie needs the whistle room for the new addition.
calmly reasures Tyghress that her stripes aren’t in any danger… so long as she doesn’t start selling off whistles en masse
Jessie,
Is your whistle sale still going on? I happened on the thread by accident and since I fool around with the whistel a bit was intrigued. I really don’t need another whistle (since I am primarily a box player) but you know how it is sometimes…
Thanks,
Bill
Thanks Liam - I missed it too as we were away…but, like Zoob and Jens, this whistler’s a mid-ranger

Panorama on the sunset… (usual routine–w/o cactus, plz)
Quick flash-back: desolate scene of the final slaughter of the Clarets (Keep it sober while you can. Tight framing. Silence, haunting sound of a gust of wind howling through the corpses. Nah, scrap that, it reminds Titanic.)
Trisha slowly rides away over the hilltop (silhouette rider + llama, gradual fade to near-black)
The music fades while she tremolos the final bar
Zoom in on the deadly alto, bloody dramatic sunset gleam on its blade (think Kurosawa–and pay a Merikun propman if needed, dammit).

Zub, I am confused!
Yes, the whistle sale is still going on. All the ones that don’t say “SOLD” next to them are still available.
That’s OK Jessie, but most of the time I think he confuses the rest of us too.
I think I got this one though??? 
Sorry Jessie - what Zoob is suffering from is the partial annihilation of his best claret collection by my significant other (and myself though it’s impossible to imbibe while wrestling with a YLC low D, so I was only moderately involved in this process).
As for the above post - they’ve been having strange weather down his way…
Trisha
Shuuuure.
Go ahead.
Make us guys look like the bibendum liquor-fiends. I shall hold my tongue.
Tu quoque, xBrutus… 
And all I meant t’was nice meeting an alter ego alto eager in this rough high whistles world :sulk:
Plenty are still available. Take a look…see if there are any you want, please.
If these don’t sell due to sudden market failures-endow a wing of the Institute of Diatonic Bliss to house the collection. Somebody has to keep those pesky squeeze boxers from dominating it.

Nice try, Curator, nice try.
