Roofers and Piano Tuners

[Farrell]

About two weeks ago I tuned a Yamaha grand in a big fancy house. The lady was doing one of the "I'll get all the contractors to do their stuff on one day" things. Cement mixer going right outside the window. Group of guys setting up a home gym in the next room. In the den was another group setting up a mega-home theatre center - sound system and all, along with all the sound checks (It seemed to work well). Lawn crew outside with all their moter driven stuff (they can't even use a broom to sweep). And four dogs barking at every single one of these contractors.

I did have a word with the lady about this bit of logic.
