Which reminds me of when I was learning the violin as a kid. The family

I opted to give away the violin when I left high school. One of the
reasons was my tendency to almost, but *not* *quite* hit the right note.

Now I'm starting to debate: should I perhaps take up the harp? It'd be
different, at least...

I'm pretty sure that you have to be a cute girl to be taken seriously as
a harp player. Are you at least blonde?

Arthur Marx begs to differ. He may have been blond, but is, without much
arguement, probably the most famous harpist ever to have lived, and not
a cute girl.
