Big Question:

Are taxes in other countries like taxes here in the U.S.? Most notably, do you have to calculate your tax burden by April 15th (or thereabouts, depending on what day of the week that is and where holidays land? It's actually April 17th here this year.)
Thinking about doing a Punday about taxes, but this is an international audience, you know?

Did everybody see our article in @FreewriteHouse?

Guitar!
As in,
Why do cannibals prefer plucky guitarists? Because they're finger-picking good!

OOF. I used up all the cannibal jokes. Please don't make any of your own.

You can do better.

Sort:  

Which secret chord did David play to please the lord?
Gsus.

I dropped my guitar on my sons head yesterday... He's now a flat minor

Never insult your Gibson... You might offend her!! :o)

The guitarist demanded perfect timbre. He spent hours at the Loud Lumberjack Music Shop choosing his axe.

There was once a Guitar couple called Les and Paul..

Paul arrived home early from work one day, and Les was quickly dressing...

"Why is your G-string on the floor!?"

"Oh Tim, don't be so highly strung"

"There is a rumour you are seeing someone else"

"That's idle gossip and is completely bassless. That imagination of yours is going to get you into treble some day!!"

"I've been drinking," said the rhythm guitar part. "You go solo. I'll stay here at the barre."

Excellent.... How did I not think to use Barre in mine... Well played sir!

HAAAAaaaa. (I assume Barre is a music term? This is why you should never skip the "explain your joke" step.)

A barre chord: The first finger barres the entire fret. You can move chord shapes up and down the neck.

If you made a living hosting tents of folks sharing unusual ways they form barre chords, you could start a bizarre bazaar biz for barre!
