Subject: RE: Nykleharpa- Swedish Folk Instrument!
You're welcome, Malcolm. Don't mind 'Spaw, he's got this whole Lenny Bruce fixation, stream of consciousness thing going that just can't be stopped sometimes, plus he's a hell of a luthier!

Now, 'Spaw.....tell me you DID read the info at this site which explains why they use the word harp! If you're not careful, those jackalope who were guarding Cleigh may just turn on 'im and take him hostage, 'til you've listened to and read everything the Nykleharpa site has to offer!**BG** Such a purist! And, really quite good a "harping", aren't you?*g*

As to your idea of using harp as a part of an euphemism, let's see....Harp you! Naw.....Your mother wears harpboots! Naw....look at that set of knoharpers...maybe. He's got harps? Tell ya what....I like my niece's idea that she uses around her 3 year old, no naughty "f" word around him, we all just say "Bucket!"

Now.....go listen and learn, you harper you!
