  But my all time favorite was a Doctor -- yes, an MD, a college =
educated man -- who, when he found out what I did, said, "I thought you =
had to be blind to do that."

I arrived to tune this guy's piano and one of the first things he said =
to me was when he was a child, the man who tuned his family's piano was =
blind, so as a child he thought all piano tuners were blind.  Then, of =
course, he discovered later that no, a person didn't need to be blind to =
be a piano tuner, but didn't I think it would be a fine Monty Python =
scene--John Cleese at the desk of a vocational school asking, "So, what =
do you want to be?"

The unsuspecting would-be piano tuner would say "Why, I'd like to be a =
piano tuner, sir."

"All right, please step into that room and your eyes will be plucked =
out....."


I smiled and thought, "This guy is really warped."
