"We'll be offering a Stooge brand modular synth stepladder next year to
compliment our cabnets, available in 9 different colors.

"Oh, that up there...well it's a theremin controller made out of a
bobblehead figure of Leon Theremin."

"Can you believe a state trooper pulled me over for not stopping at the
weigh station?"

"That's the controller module for the built-in hydraulic lift."

"The new Floridian style designer patch cords should be available shortly."

Wow! Nice to see how Larry's cabinet project progressed!

And for the topmost case he really did cut the mounting lip into the
top and bottom so that the front part of the wood that shows is thin
like Moog cabinets. Or are the top and bottom boards just thinner? Larry?

And all this magic around he's bussen ... ;-)

Any sound snippets availiable from this gathering?

cheers, Michael.

Ah! So that explains why there's no magic bus.

thanks, Michael.

Hahahaha! Can I play? Thanks.

"Gee-- maybe it would make sound if we plugged in the other ends of
the patch cords!"

"Um, Larry? Did I ever tell you that you look kinda like Mark Twain?"

"Nice dotcom! But dude, what's with all the BLACK?"

"If you need a stepladder to reach the top, you have defied
Mitchell's Law and must now be killed."

"The patch cords? They were black until my wife contacted "Queer Eye
for the Straight Guy."
