This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I was just looking over this month's Journal. It has a most interesting = picture on the cover and I was considering what hidden meanings might be = there. Here are a few that I came up with... 1. There are two tuning forks. They are made of crust indicating that = they have inaccurate pitch. 2. The forks cross each other which would suggest a historic = temperament. 3. There is flaky crust all around the pie meaning that it is an older = piano, probably somewhat dirty. 4. The squiggly lines indicate that the piano has multiple false beats. 5. It is a chocolate pie representing a dark mahogany finish. 6. There are multiple cracks which would suggest a cracked sound board, = possibly a loose pin block. 7. It is in a glass dish meaning that it has real ivory keys. 8. The pie is round so the action is in reasonable regulation. 9. Because the pie was baked the piano was formerly owned by a hot jazz = pianist. 10. There is an elaborate table cloth which would indicate a decorative = art case. 11. There is one orange pumpkin gourd which would suggest a padded = stool instead of a bench. The stem however could be interpreted as an = adjustable artist bench. 12. There are two other gourds in a shadow which represent the = audience. One is green which would mean that either the quality of the = playing or the music itself is discontenting to some listeners. 13. The other remaining gourd is in three different colors meaning that = at least two thirds of the audience is enjoying the performance to = varying degrees. 14. This last gourd also has an extra long curly stem which would = suggest that the audience members feel some sort of personal connection = with the pianist, thus explaining why they have a higher appreciation = for the music. 15. There are no plates, forks, or serving utensils. Apparently a = number of expected guests could not make the performance. 16. The entire photograph is printed on glossy paper. This means it is = a low-end piano with a high-gloss finish. 17. It is on the Journal cover indicating that some unfortunate = technician had to contend with this piano earlier in the day. 18. Since it is the November issue it is fair to assume that it is a = holiday recital. Okay there you have it. The hidden meaning behind this month's PTG = Journal cover. Did I miss anything?
