[TPIN] 30th anniversary of the invention of the Hosaphone(tm)

[Glenn Bengry]

chuck,


      I always hand hammer my own horns.  Whenever the horn doesn't respond 
correctly, clams etc, I hand hammer it some more.  It doesn't play any 
better, and it looks like hell, but I'm always happier after I hand hammer 
it a little.
